The strange behaviour of a mongrel is attracting curious onlookers to the Mahalakshmi temple in Puttenahalli. Local residents claim that the dog arrives in the morning and repeatedly goes around the temple, sometimes well into the evening. This has been going on for the past one week, they claimed.

The canine is not deterred by people in the crowd blocking its path; it simply walks around the person. The number of people drawn to the temple to witness this mysterious behaviour is increasing with each passing day, resulting in traffic hold-ups in the road nearby.
