Way, who had previously been able to fend for herself on the streets, now had additional dependents to provide for. She searched the area for any available food, cognizant of the urgency posed by the Argentine winter. While exploring an alley, Way discovered an infant who had been deserted by their mother.

The baby, who was named Santino, was quickly taken to the emergency room for urgent medical care. Alejandria shared the story of the stray dog’s bravery, and the doctors strongly believe that the baby would not have survived if it weren’t for the dog’s heroic actions. Way was recognized as a hero. Santino was surprisingly in good shape for what he had been through, and most of that was thanks to the amazing care Way had provided.
