The bizarre dog spinning ritual of Bulgaria

New Delhi: For hundreds of years, locals in the remote town of Brodilovo in the south-east of Bulgaria have carried out the annual Spring ritual. It involves twisting dogs a rope stretched out over a river





A net is held at the bottom for the animal to fall into, and then helped out of the water.

The tradition was banned by law in 2006, after pressure from international media in 2005, but that had no effect on the locals whatsoever.
