A love craze vetenary student faces expulsion after stitching 'I love you' message on a dog to impress girlfriend

Crazy World

I love you stitch on a dog [Photo:info]

 

A veterinary student who stitched 'I Love You' into the skin of a dog to impress his girlfriend could face the boot from university.

The unnamed trainee animal doctor bizarrely decided to show off his needlework skills on a pooch he had just carried out surgery on.

And he was so proud of his act of love that he posted the results on Facebook.

But the misplaced romanticism did not go down well with friends on the social network and the fourth-year student is now under investigation by university staff.

The wannabe vet from the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, a city in north-eastern Poland, posted the grim photo onto his girlfriend’s Facebook timeline.

But the sick snap quickly came under attack from fuming friends who slammed the image and branded it grotesque and unethical.

Defending the photo, the girlfriend who sits on a student council, said: "What’s so unethical about it?

"He’s learnt to sew in order to help and is just showing his skill."

But head of veterinary studies at the university, Andrzej Koncicki, has now launched an emergency probe into the barking-mad stitch-up.

He said: "Saying you love someone is not a bad thing, but the fact that this was stitched into the stomach of an animal does seem immoral and unethical behaviour from a student of veterinary science.

"One of the first points of the Vets’ Code of Ethics is that a vet practising his profession of public trust needs professional conduct and good morals.

"We need to find out more about what happened here."

University chiefs say they are keen to discover why the student's ill-advised joke was not stopped by his supervisor.

Sadly, it's not the first time dogs have been on the end of strange human behaviour.

Last year, The Mirror reported on a squalid zoo in China that bizarrely tried to fool visitors into thinking dogs were lions, rats and snakes.

Others were masqueraded as wolves and leopards.

A spokesperson for the zoo admitted they used domestic animals because they could not afford the real thing.

But the mind-boggling move sparked outrage because of the dank and miserable conditions the dogs were kept in.
