Thiruvananthapuram: In a bizarre incident, a dog was found abandoned by its owner in Kerala's Thiruvananthapuram for having an 'illicit relationship' with a dog next door.
The white Pomeranian, about three-years-old, was found abandoned outside the World Market in Chackai, Thiruvananthapuram.
The dog was rescued by People For Animals (PFA) volunteer, Shameen, who found a note attached to its collar and was shocked after reading it.
The note written in Malayalam read - "The dog is a really nice breed and is well-behaved. It does not require a large amount of food and we used to give it mainly milk, biscuit, and raw eggs. It does not have any diseases. The only issue is that the dog barks a little but it hasn't bitten anyone in three years. It is being abandoned because of 'illicit relationship' with a dog in the neighbourhood."
"I was informed that a dog was found near Wall Market Gate, I went there and brought her home," Shameen told the media.
She further added that although dogs are usually abandoned due to injury or sickness, this was the first time she had seen a dog abandoned for having an "illicit relationship".
