NAIROBI, Kenya - Offers to adopt a newborn girl found among a litter of puppies after being abandoned are pouring in to the Kenyan hospital where she is being treated, and the stray dog credited with her rescue has a home and a name — "Mkombozi" or "Savior."

As police searched for the infant's mother, a government spokesman expressed some skepticism Tuesday about the story of the dog's role in saving the child, dubbed "Angel" by hospital workers, and said authorities were investigating.

Mary Adhiambo, a resident of the compound where the dog lives, said Mkombozi apparently found the baby Friday wrapped in a plastic bag in the nearby Ngong Forest.

The dog reportedly dragged the baby across a busy road and through some barbed wire to a shed in the poor Nairobi neighborhood where puppies from two stray dogs were sheltering.

"I saw a dog carrying a baby wrapped in a black dirty cloth as it crossed the road," witness Stephen Thoya was quoted by the independent Daily Nation newspaper as saying. "I was shocked at first, and when I tried to get a closer look, the dog ran through the fence and disappeared along a dirt road."

The infant was discovered after two children alerted adults that they heard the sound of a baby crying near their wooden and corrugated-iron shack. Residents found the baby lying next to the dog and her own pup.

Government spokesman Alfred Mutua said authorities were investigating the rescue story.

"This is a very interesting development and the government is looking into it because if it happened the way it has been relayed, it is one of those amazing things that happens in life that defies human explanation," he said. "It indicates that there is somebody out there watching over us."

Well-wishers from Kenya and as far as the United States have sent e-mails to The Associated Press and called the country's main hospital to inquire about adopting the child.

"The publicity on the way the baby was rescued has sparked a lot of public interest in helping her," said Hannah Gakuo of Kenyatta National Hospital, where the child is being treated for exposure and an infection in her umbilical cord.

"People have been calling the hospital, asking about the possibility of adopting her," Gakuo told the AP.

Officials in the government's Children Department were not immediately available to comment on Angel's fate or the widespread problem of abandoned babies in Kenya, where poverty and failed relationships are frequently to blame. Kenya's weak law enforcement and poor social security system mean most people who abandon their babies are never caught.

The stray dog that saved the child also was being cared for Tuesday, a day after its last surviving puppy died for unknown reasons, said Jean Gilchrist of the Kenya Society for the Protection and Care of Animals.

Animal welfare officials named the dog "Mkombozi," or "Savior," and gave it its first bath and de-worming.

"She looks a bit depressed so we'd like to examine her to see if she has a temperature or any other problem," Gilchrist said of the dog. "She wasn't happy when we all poured into the compound. She decided to leave, but kids in the compound brought her back for the bath because she was full of ticks."

Felix Omondi, 11, and his family, who live in the compound, have taken the dog in.

The dog, a tan short-haired mixed breed who was heavy with milk from nursing, was possibly trying to care for the child because most of her puppies had died, Gilchrist said.

"She reckoned it was a young animal and possibly wanted to bring it up," Gilchrist said. "It is something to do with the canine-human bond."

"Other dogs might have just left her there to die. ... She's obviously a very special dog," Gilchrist added.

"She is a very street-wise dog, that is for sure. The other dogs in the compound did not look very well, but she is the fattest of them all — she obviously knows how to look after herself." [/img]

nts... ignore CBA's posts.

A link would have been nice rather than posting the page and a half of fluff.

[unjonharley]

All the more reason to have a drop-a-tot law in every state. Where a mother can put a baby into safe hands and not be arrested.

Note to self: Be wary of fat dogs who tell you they were just dragging a juicy infant across the road "to take care of it."

Yeah, I guess its just my jaded self that thinks a mother dog dragging an animal back to its den of starving pups is suspicious when referred to as 'saving.'

You mean she saw the plastic bag and said "Groceries!"

Wasn't that how Rome was founded?

Basically, except there were two children in that case.

[theCryptofishist]

And it was an outright wolf. And then one of the kids killed the other. Just think the eternal city could have been called Reem.

Either that or a poor choice of animal to eat.

There's both a Romulus AND a Remus, Michigan...both not far from here. (Kalamazoo.) Also Hell, Colon, and Climax. (Not necessarily in that order.)

Unfortunately, the people you are telling to shut the fuck up when they think they should, are oft too stupid to realize when that moment is.
