With so many ancient ruins, stunning landscapes and architectural wonders surrounding me, what do I do? Ignore them all to take photos of the dogs, of course.
Peru seems to have a dog problem, with strays everywhere. They’re very sweet, though. Not aggressive and very loving.
My husband called these two Lady and the Tramp. We saw them several times, hanging out together on the beaches of Paracas.
Lady.
Tramp.
This sweetie with an underbite lives near the cathedral in Cusco. He seems to enjoy scooping up the tourists’ scraps.
This dog seemed sad and world-weary. He was snuggled up near a fish shop in Paracas.
This ugly dog attacked me with kisses and love, but was moving too fast for a decent photo. So sweet.
I saw this poor puppy wandering around a pottery shop in Nazca.
Loved this pretty dog in San Blas.
This shaggy dog was my favorite.
And I’ve seen one cat.
I wish I could take them all home with me.
