Newborn Baby Injured After Being Taken From Crib & Carried Outside By Native American Indian Dog (VIDEO)
Posted on July 21, 2009
This is pretty horrific! A newborn baby (only a few days old) is in critical condition in the hospital after he was taken from his crib and carried outside his Kentucky home by the family dog, a Native American Indian Dog. Read more on the baby below.
The baby boy, Alexander James Smith, is only a few days old and was put in his crib for a nap Monday afternoon. When his parents looked outside later, they saw their pet, a 4-year-old mixed breed called a Native American Indian dog, holding the baby in his mouth, said Jessamine County chief deputy sheriff Allen Peel.
Michael Smith, the father of the newborn, rushed outside and chased the dog into a wooded area behind the home near Nicholasville, just south of Lexington. It took him around 10 minutes to recover his son about 200 yards behind the home, Peel said.
“It’s unreal,” Peel said.
The baby was taken to the University of Kentucky Hospital in Lexington, and he is listed in critical condition early Tuesday. Peel said the baby suffered multiple punctures and bruises.
The dog, named Dakota, was taken by local animal control officials and was being quarantined.
No charges have been filed, and the case remains under investigation, Peel said.
That is so sad. We send our best and hope the newborn boy will recover from this terrible incident.
We do not have a photo of the actual dog, but here are photos of Native American Indian Dogs:

some dogs are bred to be family pets and some are not. I am sure this dog seemed like a perfectly sweet dog to the owners, but it should not have been able to get into the baby’s room. it’s an outdoor dog. it also sounds like a “one person” dog meaning it only accepted the baby when its owner was present to make it do so. a few more minutes… well, thank god the baby was found alive.
