In the quaint town of Paleque, Mexico, a heartwarming scene unfolded reminiscent of the nativity story. A pregnant street dog sought refuge in a makeshift barn filled with straw, much like Mary sought shelter in a stable to give birth to Jesus. This humble setting, typically adorned with festive figures in serene silence, unexpectedly became a haven for the dog seeking warmth and safety from the cold streets.
Local journalist Eric Gúzmán stumbled upon this touching sight in the town’s main square, where the nativity scene had been set up. There, nestled among the straw, he found the dog, who had chosen this peaceful spot to deliver her seven puppies.
This gesture not only highlighted the dog’s instinctive need for shelter and care but also touched the hearts of onlookers, reminding them of the compassion and resilience of animals in unexpected circumstances.
“She was surprised and happy to find that her cubs were in a safe place,” Eric told The Dodo. “It’s not wet and cold,” he said. It should be noted that although Paleпqυe is usually hot all year round, it starts to get cold in December and the presence of dogs searching for shelter is quite frequent.
Eric began to spread the news about the dog and her puppies in the manger, and since then, many of Palestine have made the trip to see them for themselves, some bringing food and drink. Even the local officials agreed and agreed that the family of dogs would be allowed to stay as long as they needed.

For Eric, the breeding of the puppies inside the Christmas manger is nothing short of a miracle, but he hopes it will leave a lasting legacy. “I hope that as citizens we are more aware of stray dogs and adopt them instead of buying them,” said the journalist. “We must love them and depend on their origin,” he said.
