I was wandering through the beautiful city of Valparaiso and taking photographs of the awesome painted and colorful architecture of the whole place. And suddenly behind some car there was this cute lazy dog chilling around. Actuayll there are heaps of dogs in Valparaiso, but they are cool. Especially when you arrive with your backpack they start follow you. We were three guys and walked from the busstation to our hostel for about 45 minutes. When we arrrived we had already about 15 new dogfriends who accompanied us. Very nice wellcoming and cool fellows, no aggressive dogs. The people in Valparaiso treat them as well good, give them food and the life of the streetdogs in these neighborhoods is quite alright. For me on a profile of Valparaiso there has to be of course the aspect about all the wonderful graffiti and streetart, but as well the fact that there are cool artists dogs everywhere as well :-). This photo here is was shot on the Calle Templeman on Cerro Alegre and is quite representative.
