Peruvian Hairless Dog Nap

This hairless doggy is of a rare pre-Incan breed. He roams the ruins of Chan Chan, but here he's taking a siesta, as a true South American dog should. Good mohawk, hey?

Best Perro Peruano photo I have ever seen. Well done!

The Peruvian hairless dog is a breed native to Peru and was known to be kept and prized by the Incas and pre-Incan coastal cultures. The indigenous believed they were special, somewhat spiritual beings, with powers to heal those in contact with them. This belief still exists to this day and people are eager to own these rare, expensive dogs. These myths helped keep the species alive in small towns during and after the Spanish conquest.

These dogs can be VERY beautiful...
