  venezuela guaica indian breastfeeding a puppy

From years and years I've had this postcard with me. I find it lovely: a venezuelan "guaica" indian breast feeding a puppy. I always thought that this was a loving and generous tradition, but recently I read that dogs saliva is a great cure for "mastitis": inflamation of the breast due to breast feeding, excess of milk, whatever. Anyhow, I still find it adorable.
