- Puppy by La Bruja; photo by Barbara Drake C. 2009
Last month a Weimaraner named La Bruja gave birth to six puppies including Arena (“sand”), above.
La Bruja belongs to one of El Fotógrafo’s cousins who lives in Jesus María. We had heard that La Bruja was embarazada but we weren’t keeping track of the due date or even thinking ‘puppies on the way.’
This past Sunday we went to a family almuerzo, and one of the kids brought this little velvet-furred creature in a cardboard box. I was kind of floored. The puppy has a wrinkled old-man face and a fat panza and a tail like that of a chubby rat.
Who knew Weimaraner puppies were so tragically cute?

Adorable! It’s a stunning breed, but they unfortunately are a very needy breed and known to tear up the house if they are left alone.

Too bad. Not a good choice for an owner who works all day and leaves dog alone. Dog must require lots of attention and probably exercise.
As you know, many families in Lima have maids that walk the dogs several times a day. That’s the case in Arena’s house, so I think the puppy will probably have enough exercise. I’ll check and see with EF’s cousin how the furniture is holding up.
