Priest celebrates Mass with a dog on his lap (PHOTO)

Father Gerardo Zatarain García, of the Mexican city of Torreón , went viral on social media a few months ago when he celebrated a mass with a white dog on his lap.

The priest told that the dog, named Paloma, he left the rectory and followed him. The Defensoría Animalista Facebook page published the scene on March 14, 2021.

After the many comments posted on Facebook, the priest declared: “Family! I am surprised by the photo and I noticed that it circulates in social networks, I clarify: my dog ​​Paloma is neither sick nor old, she is stressed - I said this at Mass - and she left the parish house and immediately went to look for me, since we have recently been in this parish and she is not used to being alone in this new place. The question was thus clarified ”.
