An adorable video of a family performing a traditional baby shower ceremony for their pregnant pet dog has melted hearts across the internet.
A ceremony filled with rituals and affection

The video begins with the pet dressed in an adorable custom-made outfit, complete with delicate floral accessories and small ornaments that enhance her festive look.
As the ceremony unfolds, a man gently applies turmeric paste to her face, a traditional step symbolising blessings and protection. A necklace is placed around her neck, followed by floral garlands and decorative jewellery, making the moment feel both symbolic and joyful.
