A dog-about-town earned a medal—and a new leather collar—after rescuing an infant from a roadside dump in Thailand. The dog, Pui, apparently found the baby girl in a plastic bag and carried her home, barking as he arrived. That got the attention of his owner's 12-year-old niece, who opened the bag and found the baby, the Bangkok Post reports. The infant, who weighs 4 lbs. 13 oz., was hospitalized; doctors say she was likely born at about seven and a half months. Officials are now looking for her mother. Meanwhile, Pui's owner, Gumnerd Thongmak, received a reward of about $327. (More dog stories.)
