plonqVILLAGE WHERE A LITTLE DOG'S TERROR IS USED TO PREDICT THE FUTURE
Mar 7 2005
SUPERSTITIOUS Bulgarian villagers believe terrified dogs are the key to a prosperous future.
Every year, the village of Brodilovo hold a 'trichana na kuche' - dog's spin - ceremony.
They tie dogs to a device made of two twisted ropes and spin them round, frightening them so badly they empty their bowels.
Villagers believe, according to ancient custom, that the more faeces the dogs produce, the healthier and wealthier the year will be for Brodilovo and its inhabitants.
I admit that for a change I'm actually more appalled than amused.
