Abandoned Birmingham baby named after Jade the dog
A newborn baby girl found abandoned in a park has been named after the dog whose walker found her.
Jade, who has been named by hospital staff, was found in a bag wrapped in a towel at a community park in Stechford, Birmingham, on Thursday afternoon.
The girl, who weighs about 6lbs (2.7kg), remains in hospital and should make a full recovery over the next two days, West Midlands Police said.
Roger Wilday, whose German shepherd dog found Jade, said he was proud of her but it was very "lucky" she found her when she did.
The baby was thought to be about 24 hours old when she was found at about 14:00 GMT on Thursday and believed to have been there for about 30 minutes before being discovered.
