Yes, Its Really Happening. This Woman Just Married A Dog
Whether they will ever receive the same level of legitimacy that our culture has afforded same-sex marriage is unclear.

Social l*****ts have been quick to dismiss the argument that changing the time-tested definition of marriage would lead to increasingly unorthodox demands from individuals seeking to wed relatives, inanimate objects, or even their pets.
One British woman, however, recently validated that slippery slope prediction as she made her way down the aisle to meet her new husband, a terrier named Sheba.
According to reports, divorcee Amanda Rogers did not give up on love after her marriage dissolved almost 20 years ago. She did, however, apparently decide to switch species.
Sheba had been in my life for years, she said of the dog, making me laugh and comforting me when I was feeling low. I couldnt think of anything more Id need from a life partner.
She described proposing to the female pup which would technically make this just an extension of the popular same-sex marriage craze and her delight at her alleged acceptance.
I could tell by her tail wagging that she said Yes, Rogers recalled.
Though she conceded that she understands her commitment will not be legally recognized, the bride said her ceremony felt just as real as any other wedding.
Id dreamed of a perfect wedding dress since I was small, she said, explaining I made it myself for the ceremony.
Attendees even joined in the unorthodox celebration.
I gave her a kiss to seal the deal and then everyone threw confetti, she explained.
Of course, a wedding strikes most people as an unnecessary event in the life of a dog owner. The love between man and beast does not require such a ceremony.
As marriage becomes an increasingly fluid concept, however, one might expect even more of these unions to be foisted upon society. Whether they will ever receive the same level of legitimacy that our culture has afforded same-sex marriage is unclear. What seems inevitable, though, is that the fundamental redefinition of the biblical definition of marriage will only empower people to come up with new and disturbing ways to push the envelope regarding this once-sacred bond.
