Puppy Love: The 'Dog Lady Of New Delhi’ Cares For 400 Strays

AN INDIAN woman feeds and looks after over 400 dogs – with 120 living with her in a shanty in New Delhi. The ‘dog lady of New Delhi', Pratima Devi, is a rag picker and has chosen to dedicate her life to stray dogs. Pratima lives in a tarp-covered shed with her 120 dogs and sells scraps to feed them, despite barely being able to feed herself. However, the 65-year-old claims to be happier with her beloved hounds than with humans, after she left her husband after they had a troubled marriage.
