Last week in a shocking incident, which went beyond the heights of conservative behavior,?a man in Kerala gave the most obscure, bizarre and unimaginable reason for abandoning his 3-year-old female Pomeranian - that it was having an ¡®illicit affair.¡¯
With the abandoned dog he left a note which read, ¡®This is a good breed. Good habits, Excess food is not needed. She has no disease. She is given a bath once in five days. She just barks. Over the past three years, she has not bitten anybody. Mostly she was fed with milk, biscuit and raw egg. NOW WE HAVE ABANDONED HER AFTER SHE HAD AN ILLICIT RELATIONSHIP WITH A NEARBY DOG!¡¯
The dog was rescued by a People For Animals volunteer, Shameem from the gate of World Market at Anayara in Thiruvananthapuram that it was tethered to.
The dog that was abandoned for the most bizarre reason has now reportedly been adopted by a supervisor at the zoo, named Saji.
He reportedly said, ¡°We had a Pomeranian with us for nine years but it passed away some time ago. I had read about the dog in the papers and wanted to adopt it. I met Shameem at the zoo last week and she told me that the dog was yet to be adopted.¡±?
?
The same evening Saji and his wife Bindu, met Shameem to adopt the dog.?
¡°I noticed that the dog had immediately become friendly with the couple. They took the dog in their scooter as Bindu held it confidently,¡± Shameem reportedly said.?
Shameem also informed that a lot of people inquired about the dog after seeing her Facebook post, no one really came forward to adopt it. Some even claimed it was their dog in the first place. ¡°I had to ask specific questions to these people to verify if they were telling the truth, before they made a visit. One person had come forward to adopt the dog but I didn¡¯t hear from him after that,¡± Shameem reportedly said.?

The 3-year old Pomeranian has been taken by Saji and Bindu to their home in Thozhuvangad, near Vattiyoorkavu and renamed the dog as Puppy.?
¡°I enquired about the dog with Saji and Bindu, they told me that at her new home she investigated every room before settling in Saji¡¯s mother¡¯s chair,¡± Shameem reportedly said.
We are glad to know not everyone thinks it important to impose their morality standards on their pets and hope Puppy finds love and care in her new home!?
