- •A dog continuously circling a Hanuman temple in Nandpur village, Bijnor, has gone viral, with many attributing it to faith and devotion.
- •Veterinarians in Bhopal dismiss the 'miracle' theory, suggesting the behavior could be a symptom of serious illness like neurological disorders or rabies.
- •Dr. S.K. Srivastava warns that continuous circling, not eating or drinking properly, indicates a physical or mental problem, possibly a vestibular disorder or brain infection.
- •Experts list potential scientific causes including vestibular disorder, brain tumor, canine distemper, early rabies, or canine dementia.
- •Doctors urge caution, advising people to get the dog examined by a vet and seek immediate medical attention if bitten or scratched due to potential rabies risk.
