Ranchi: Former Indian skipper M S Dhoni, whose love for big dogs is well known, added to his list of pets when he bought a black stallion soon after arriving at his seven-acre farmhouse on the outskirts of Ranchi.
The Chennai Super Kings skipper flew in from Delhi where he was leading his franchise before IPL 2021 was postponed due to COVID-19 cases in the bio-bubble.
Dhoni's wife, Sakshi posted a video of the horse on her Instagram account and captioned it, "Welcome home Chetak! A true gentleman! Happily accepted in our pack!"
Dhoni already has a Belgian Malinois, a white husky and a German Shepherd.
Dhoni is the second Indian cricketer after CSK teammate Ravindra Jadeja to keep a horse as pet.
Soon after reaching home from Delhi, all-rounder Jadeja too had posted pictures of his three horses on Twitter, captioning it "Back to the place where I feel safe."
