Promotion dogs (in Bulgarian " trichane on kucheta ") - is an ancient Bulgarian ritual that once a year on March 6 carried out in the villages , to prevent the occurrence of rabies in livestock and warding off evil spirits from the houses of the villagers . The ritual is performed as follows: On the banks of the small pond , usually shallow river , set two pillars . Pull the rope between them . Tilting the pillars in the center of the pool , the middle rope and lowered carefully twist , forming a loop at the end . Then take the dog selected to participate in the ritual , and through the neck loop to hook it under his chest . Straighten tilted poles and twisted rope begins to straighten up , spinning the poor animal with great speed. Finally loop also untied and frightened victim falls into the water, where barely selected , returning back to their tormentors. Dogs used in the ritual , remain intact , but if you look at the frightened faces and spinning helplessly hanging over the water animals , surrounded on all sides by crowds , singing ' delight becomes creepy. There were cases when the dogs were drowned , falling into the water completely dizorientirovannymi after promotion. During ritual dogs often injured as from digging into the body of the rope , injuring internal organs, and during the fall into the water in a state of shock and swallowing dirty water entering the lungs.
