My husband used to go to the temple and feed animals and one day a stray dog followed him and came to us 3 years back. We named her Sweety. everyone used to say that we should get Sweety married. We discussed it and then eventually a programme was made in just 4 days. We decided to follow all rituals,” said Savita, the owner of the female dog named Sweety, as reported by ANI.
Displaying her Mehendi, Savita said that rituals like Haldi was also done for both the dogs.

On being asked by ANI about how people reacted to the ceremony of the dogs, Manita said, "Some people like it and some people don’t. We are not concerned at all. We just followed what we desired."
“People used to say that police will pick us and put us in Jail but we are not bothered. Since we are a childless couple and this is our only happiness so today my husband is happy as we are getting Sweety married,” she added.
