A five-year-old Pomeranian found herself abandoned on an Indian street after her owner took exception to her embarking on an "illicit relationship" with a neighbouring dog.
The Deccan Herald reported that the dog was found in Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of Kerala, with a note attached to her chain.
The note
said the pet was disease-free, well-fed and hadn't bitten anyone but was being dumped because it had engaged in a relationship with a neighbour's dog.
The woman who found the dog, Shameem Faruque, told The Times of India: "The trend of abandoning dogs is rising among city residents. But I have never come across such a strange reason.
"The female dog was in heat. It is strange and sad that the owner found it an illicit act. Though he kept a note saying it is well-mannered, he did not bother to mention her name.
