Semi-retired royal engineer Terry Walsh was walking with his dog, Hel, at The Mound in Kings Norton on 22 April when the newborn was found. The 64-year-old says he would have walked past what he thought was a discarded blanket if it hadn t been for the help of his pet.
Mr Walsh explains how the baby boy started crying after Hel ran over to him, lay beside him and started to gently nudge him with her nose.
