The one-of-a-kind ceremony might have surely taken the residents of Jile Singh Colony in Palam Vihar Extension by surprise, yet a crowd did show up for the wedding. They attended rituals for the two dogs as ‘baraatis‘.
Savita, the owner of Sweety said, “I am a pet lover and, as a couple, we used to take care of pets. I do not have a child, so Sweety (the female dog) 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 three years ago. We named her Sweety.”
