Machu Picchu is an ancient Incan citadel of Peru that attracts tourists all year round.  It is also the name proposed for the puppy that Peruvian dog lovers want to gift the new President of the US. 

As the elder daughter of the President, 10-year old Malia, is allergic to dogs, a compleetely hairless dog (Peruvian Hairless Dog)has been offered as a gift.  This dog's original ancestor can be traced back to 3000 years!  

This breed was favored by the Incan rulers.  It is believed to be a Hypoallergenic dog. It has an elegant bearing, is intelligent, friendly and almost ideal for people who are allergic to dogs.

Dogs rule the box office!

Right from the times  of Lasie and Rin TIn Tin dog movies have always been endearing, interesting and immensely popular.  The great Benji and the enormous Beethoven stole your hearts and created a splash at the box office. 

Now here is a movie to beat all dog movies….it has beaten the much awaited Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio starrer “Body of Lies”.

The movie, “Beverly Hills Chihuahua” is about a much cossetted Chihuahua dog that suddenly has to give up her luxurious life and learn the ropes in a Mexican Desert.  The movie has been on the top position of the US  Box Office for the second week now. 

The movie was first screened on an “invitation only” premise for 300 Chihuahuas and the people they belonged to!  Soon, ticket sales spiralled up and the movie continues to enthrall movie goers rushing in hordes to watch the Chihuahuas. 

The movie that seems to be just the thing the people needed to take their mind of everyday hassles, is an entertaining and heart warming tale of one of the tiniest and most adorable of dogs.
