There was a surveillance camera in the nursery. The parents had installed it to always be sure the baby was safe. They especially trusted their dog — every night he lay by the crib and didn’t move a step.
That evening, the wife noticed her wedding ring was missing. She was certain she had lost it somewhere in the nursery.
— Maybe we should review the footage? — suggested the husband. — Perhaps we can see where it went.
— Yes, how did I not think of that myself… — she replied and turned on the video.
Minutes passed, and everything on the screen looked normal. But after a while, the woman frowned.
— Honey, do you remember how long we were in the nursery last night?
— Well… five minutes, at most.
— Exactly. But on yesterday’s footage, we’re standing by the crib for almost half an hour. And I don’t remember that.
The husband shrugged:
— Maybe we just forgot?
— No. Look closely at the dog.
On the screen, the dog was frozen by the crib, not moving, and staring at the baby the entire time. His posture was tense, as if he were waiting for someone.
The wife rewound the footage and decided to play the video from the beginning. But at one point, she suddenly screamed:
A shadow passed by the window in the footage. A few seconds later, the camera captured a figure wearing a mask and black clothes. He moved silently, as if checking the surroundings.
In the next clip, the image seemed to freeze — the same frames repeated over and over, as if someone had deliberately tampered with the recording to hide the intruder’s presence.
It was only thanks to the wife’s attentiveness that they realized: the baby was in danger. The loyal dog was vigilantly guarding the baby, as if sensing the stranger.
The parents rushed into the nursery, and those few minutes probably saved their child — as the unknown person could have returned at any moment.
The police received the footage, clearly showing both the intruder’s figure and signs of video tampering. From that day on, the baby never slept alone again — the crib was moved into the parents’ bedroom, and the dog stayed by the baby’s side every night, never closing its eyes.
