A heart-warming video has emerged of a bitch saving life of an orphaned baby monkey from a pack of dogs and eventually adopting him in central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.

In a rare show of compassion, motherly care and love, the bitch has taken the monkey under its wing.

Ruby is not only also breastfeeding the orphaned primate, she also cares for the monkey like her own baby.

The pair's relationship has become talk of the town in Seoni Malwa of Hoshangabad district.

The dog can be seen roaming around Kanskheda village with the monkey perched on her back.

Dog owner Suresh Prabhu says: "The baby monkey was roaming along in the area when a pack of dogs surrounded him. Before they could rip him apart, my dog Ruby intervened and saved his life. It has been more than one and a half month since the pair became the centre of attaracion of the entire village. The bitch which doesn't have any pup considers the monkey as her own child and is very protective of him."

According to Prabhu, the two have become celebrities of sorts as people from nearby villages have started thronging his house to get a glimpse of the pair.
