Gurugram couple invites 100 baratis to dog wedding
We have all been to a human ‘shaadi’, but how many of us have been to a dog ‘shaadi’? Well, as bizarre as it may sound, a couple in Gurgram threw a bash for their loved pooch on its wedding day.
Sheru, the male dog, and Sweety, the female dog had a full-blown wedding where 100 printed invitation cards were distributed. Neighbours and other attendees, who danced to the beats of ‘dhol’, lit up the whole lane with a festive vibe. The dogs also had a ‘haldi’ ceremony.
Speaking to ANI, the guardian of a female dog said, “I am a pet lover and as a couple, we used to take care of pets. I don’t have a child so Sweety is our kid. My husband used to go to the temple and feed animals and one day a stray dog followed him and came to us 3 years back. We named her Sweety. Everyone used to say that we should get Sweety married. We discussed it and then eventually a programme was made in just 4 days. We decided to follow all the rituals.”
The wedding was arranged by Sweety’s owners. The female street dog was adopted by the owner who got her married to the neighbour’s dog Sheru.
