is it sin offering meat to god - as per puranas

 as in puranas

The sage Vishvamitra had come to the banks of the river Goutami Ganga with his disciples.

Vishvamitra’s wife, children and disciples were all hungry. The sage therefore sent his disciples out to

look for food. They searched everywhere, but could find no food. The only object that they could find

was the body of a dead dog. They brought this to Vishvamitra.

“We have no choice,” Vishvamitra told his disciples. “Clean the meat carefully with water. Then offer it

to the gods, the sages and the ancestors. This is what we have to live on.”

Offering the meat of a dog to the gods was unheard of. Indra adopted the form of a hawk and stole the

vessel in which the meat was kept. But Vishvamitra got to know about this and got ready to curse Indra.

Indra was naturally scared of Vishvamitra’s curse. He changed the dog-meat into amrita (a heavenly

drink) and brought the vessel back.

“I don’t want amrita,” Vishvamitra told Indra. “Bring the dog-meat back. I don’t want to have amrita when the whole world is starving for food. There is no food available and I do not see any sin in eating dog meat. Nor should there be a sin in offering it to the gods.”
