#1 I can understand the religious mockery angle, but what is cruel in that? Sounds like the dogs wouldn't mind, would get a treat out of it (and dogs do love to eat), not too mention the dogs might get to know the bitches better, if conditions are right (something dogs do enjoy a lot too), and everyone would have a bit of fun.

Uptight animals rights activists. Bah.

#2 I agree A5089 - it's wacky and tacky, but not cruel. What is it about animal "rights" people that they get so upset about such minor things? Lord knows there are plenty of major things to be upset about, especially in India.

#3 But children with misshapen teeth can still marry dogs, right?

#4 When my girlfriend was running for Judge this past year, we were going to lots of different events, sometimes 3 or 4 a night. One Saturday AM, we were slightly misinformed about one event; it was supposed to be some kind of benefit for an animal rescue foundation at a local gallery. It was, but it turned out to also be a birthday party for a dachsund, and she had all of her maybe 250(!) fellow dachsund friends over for a snack and a playdate. Maybe 300 owners and their food (they had cake and limitless food) and free drink (heavy drinkers, Dachsund owners....), mixed in with 250 8 inch high dogs running and playing in a high end timber loft art gallery in Chicago. While we were hustling votes.... That was surreal....

#5 I would have liked to see the beauty contest.

#6 (heavy drinkers, Dachsund owners....)

You'd be too if your pet was easily mistaken for a ballpark snack.

Someone needs to direct PFA's ~~attention~~ excessive quantities of spare time to the misery known as halal slaughter.
