A renowned plastic surgeon of a Rajasthan government hospital was booked for allegedly tying a stray dog to his car and dragging it along the road here on Sunday, police said.
In a video, which has gone viral, the dog could be seen struggling to match the pace of the vehicle.
The dog suffered a fracture in one leg, while its another leg has injury marks. It also sustained bruises on the neck, said a caretaker at Dog Home Foundation.
Station House Officer of Shasri Nagar Jogendra Singh said a case has been registered against doctor Rajneesh Galwa under section 428 (mischief by killing or maiming animal) of the Indian Penal Code and section 11 (treating animals cruelly) of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals act.
Calls to Galwa did not elicit any response. Principal and Controller of S N Medical College Dilip Kachawaha said that a show cause notice has been issued to the accused seeking his reply in 24 hours.
According to the purported video, while the doctor drove the car insensibly, some commuters filmed his cruel act and made him to halt the vehicle and got the dog released.
The caretaker of the shelter home alleged that police initially were reluctant to cooperate in the matter.
"Police unnecessarily took the ambulance to the police station and kept it there for over an hour despite our request to release it so that the injured dog is treated. The police acted under the influence of the doctor and an FIR was lodged only after two hours," he alleged.

A monitor lizard allegedly raped by 4 men in Maharashtra in March. A cow allegedly raped by a man in Uttar Pradesh's Lucknow in April.
If you're sickened by these crimes, get ready to be shocked further. Between 2010 and 2020, 82 cases of sexual abuse of animals took place in India. This was claimed in a report by animal rights groups, including the Federation of Indian Animal Protection Organisations and All Creatures Great and Small.
The number could be even higher, since crimes against animals are not compiled by the National Crime Records Bureau, or NRCB, according to activists. Here are some other horrible cases which came to light in recent years.
In July 2018, activists claimed that a female dog in Goa's Siolim village had been brutalised with a screwdriver being pushed into its private parts. In the same month, the alleged rape of a pregnant goat in Haryana's Mewat grabbed headlines. The animal's owner claimed that 8 men had assaulted the goat, leading to its death.
More recently, in September last year, a 60-year-old was arrested in Rajasthan's Kota for allegedly raping a stray dog. A month later, a 67-year-old was accused of raping his neighbour's pet dog in Haryana's Gurugram, and the act was caught on camera.
Such crimes are covered by Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, which refers to "carnal intercourse against the order of nature". The provision orders life imprisonment or 10-year-imprisonment with a monetary fine.
However, activists claim stricter laws and greater efforts by the government are needed to prevent animal abuse. A new law to replace the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1960, a new ministry for animal welfare and protection, and compilation of animal-related crimes by the NCRB have been recommended by animal rights activists.

Police found another pangolin being smuggled in Odisha on April 24. It is the most trafficked mammal in the world.&nbsp;Pangolins are in great illegal demand across Asia, Africa, and America for their scales, meat, and leather.&nbsp;This was the thirteenth pangolin to be rescued from traffickers in the just the last 2 years.
When scared, pangolins roll up into balls and cover their heads with their front legs.&nbsp;If they continue to be perturbed, they can hit with sharp scales on their tails. They are also called scaly anteaters, and 8 species of pangolin are found across Asia and Africa. They range from Vulnerable to Critically Endangered, according to the World Worldlife Fund.
JN Pankaj, DIG of Police, Special Task Force (STF) said, "Yesterday, we rescued a live pangolin from near a village near the forest in Boudh district. One person has been arrested.

Italian luxury fashion house Armani says it will stop using angora wool, a rabbit hair product, starting next winter.

About time! Elle drops fur from editorial content, Armani to quit angora wool

Italian luxury fashion house Armani says it will stop using angora wool, a rabbit hair product, starting from its 2022-23 winter collections.

Italian luxury fashion house Armani says it will stop using angora wool, a rabbit hair product, starting next winter.

Soon after&nbsp;Italian luxury fashion house Armani said it will stop using angora wool, Elle magazine has said that it will&nbsp;stop using fur in all its editorial and advertising content worldwide.&nbsp;
This makes the fashion&nbsp;glossy the first major publication in the world to do so.&nbsp;
For the Armani group that went fur-free in 2016, the latest ban on angora wool, a rabbit hair product, will be effective from its 2022-23 winter collections.&nbsp;

Armani's news comes around 8 years after animal rights group PETA&nbsp;exposed the harrowing conditions in 10 Angora farms in China where 90% of the world's angora is produced.&nbsp;
In recent years, many fashion brands have adopted policies against using materials that inflict cruelty upon animals.&nbsp;Apart from Armani, a slew of brands including Gucci, Valentino,&nbsp;Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen, Burberry, Stella McCartney have also gone fur-free.&nbsp;
On the other hand, luxury group LVMH, the parent company of Dior, Fendi, Givenchy&nbsp;among others, says their stance is 'freedom of choice' for their customers and brands as Fendi&nbsp;continues to sell mink fur coats for $30,000.&nbsp;
