The infant was rushed to the hospital
where her condition was stabilized. Says Dr. Gheorghe Tirla: "It is a normal baby-girl of three kilos.
She was lucky with
that dog or she could have frozen to death.
"She hadn't even had the umbilical cord severed but everything
turned out fine and she is now recovering." Over the weekend,
temperatures outside the Romanian capital Bucharest dropped as low as
-10°C (14ºF) with 13cm of snow on the ground.

Efforts are currently underway to find the baby's mother. After
being released from the hospital, the child will be most likely be
placed in an orphanage. Appropriately enough: our heroic dog has been adopted by the
hospital's maternity unit.
