A man has married a female dog to make up for stoning two other animals to death.
The 33-year-old Indian married the sari-draped dog after an astrologer said it was the only way to cure him of a disability.
Here comes the bride...Selvakumar told the Hindustan Times he had been suffering since he stoned two dogs to death and strung them up in a tree 15 years ago.
"After that my legs and hands got paralysed and I lost hearing in one ear," he told the paper.
Family members chose a stray female dog named Selvi who was then bathed and clothed for the ceremony.
The groom and his family then had a feast - while the dog got a bun, the paper said.
The traditional Hindu ceremony took place at a temple in the southern state of Tamil Nadu.
