Many web users found out about the Turkish town of Izmit because of a dog that was behaving strangely. Every day the animal comes to the same place to sit and look at the rainwater drain for hours. People began to wonder what the drain was able to intrigue the dog with?
The dog staring at the gutter has become the most talked about animal in Turkey in recent times. The dog visits Fethiye Street, one of the busiest streets in the city, every day to admire the drain.
The animal can stare at the drain for hours, periodically changing its body position. Residents of Izmit were at a loss as to what exactly attracted the dog. He was photographed and photos were posted on social networks. People from all over the world joined in the discussions of the townspeople.
Merchants nearby stores even came up with a nickname for the dog – Mazgal, which means “drain” or “drain” in Turkish.To get an answer to the question of what interested the dog, involved rescuers: people have not excluded that there may be a person or other living creature inside the drain.
The rescue service removed the grating and examined the drain with special equipment, but nothing unusual was found.People who witnessed the strange behavior of the dog, nicknamed him the new Hatico, and veterinarian Eider Dalkich suggested that the cause may be a psychological trauma Mazgal suffered as a puppy.
According to the doctor, it could be a fall into a storm drain, for example. Or another dramatic event at that location. Perhaps it is related to her puppy, forcing the dog to go back and look for him every day.There are many opinions, but it is not excluded that the explanation for such strange behavior is quite trivial.
For example, one of the most realistic versions is that the reason for forcing the dog to watch the storm grate for hours is the usual rats. The sewers are full of them, and they often run through the drains, thus attracting the dog’s attention, awakening his hunting instinct.
