9yo girl marries dog
From correspondents in New Delhi
June 18, 2003

A NINE-year-old girl was married off to a dog in the presence of more than 100 people in eastern India under a tribal custom to protect the child from evil, a report said today.

Karnamoni Hasda wedded the street dog last week in West Bengal state's Hooghly district in a common practice among the Santhal tribe, the Press Trust of India news agency said, quoting local officials.

According to Santhal belief, if a child's first tooth appears on the upper gum he or she is in grave danger that can only be warded off by a marriage with man's best friend. The child can remarry a human after growing up.

The report said Karnamoni's canine marriage did not take place immediately after her first tooth appeared because her father's financial problems did not allow for a wedding at the time.

What a joke!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder what puppies look like?
 
Well, by the time she's 10... the dog will be 7 years older! :lol:
 
i respect the culture but what i dont get is how they can use that *tooth* portion to marry off to a dog as a scarficial proposition THATS something else!
 
Bull! I don't believe it! It's because you didn't give me the link to show the proof!
 
:shock:

uhmm thats interesting but same time seems a bit nutty to do -- but we know dogs DO have protective qualities if trained right or feels threatened -- i still dont see WHY the child has to marry a dog to be protected from evil just cuz of a tooth
 
Hmmmmmmmmmmm....strange tradition.........I reckon I'm quite speechless and cannot fathom to find anything to say on this subject. :P
