The emaciated greyhound is believed to have been dumped by hunters and was discovered wandering around a market with a snapped front leg in Vera, southern Spain.Psychologist Lianne Powell, 49, caught the stray, who is thought to be between two and three years old, and took her to a local vet for treatment on Saturday.

But after noticing the female dog was producing milk and must have given birth between five and seven days previously, vet Ellen Sobry and Lianne began searching for any living puppies.They were amazed when the dog, which has now been named Vera after the town where she was found, miraculously led the pair on a two mile walk straight to her tiny offspring.Belgian expat Ellen, 39, said: 'She had a broken leg, was bleeding from the back end and I saw she had milk, so I thought "well where are the puppies?".

'We put a collar and long lead on her and took her back to the market. Then we just followed her for about 3km – she knew where she was going.'She led us to them, it was incredible – I couldn't believe what I saw.'That dog didn't know us, we'd only met her like an hour before so it was really incredible how she decided to trust and show us where they were.'The vet noticed that the stray was producing milk and was amazed when she trusted her and Lianne enough to lead them to her puppies (pictured inside a bucket).Vera the dog, found on the street later led Lianne and Ellen to the abandoned car where her puppies lay. They are pictured here cosy and warm after being brought back to the vets.

The good Samaritans then discovered ten newborn puppies huddled together on the shredded back seat of the vehicle as their mother looked out of the front window.Lianne said: 'Clearly, we had a decision to make. If there were pups they would slowly starve to death unless we found them. We would need the greyhound's help but we didn't know if she would trust us enough to take us there.'Limping and at times dragging her cast, she led us along the backstreets and main roads over the fields and along muddy tracks.'At one point we worried she just trying to find her home but after 3km she turned up a tiny muddy track and led us under a thick hedge and into an abandoned house before crossing the yard and making her way into a car.Lianne Powell walking with Vera while she leads her and Ellen Sobry two miles to an abandoned car where she had given birth to 10 puppies.
