Brazil’s Posh Love Motel… for Dogs

Found this article on the web and show how crazy Brazilians can be when the subject is sex, even for pets! As you might know, Sào Paulo has a cottage industry in motels catering to the pleasures of the flesh (in four hour installments). Visitors make special trips to SP just for that, staring googly-eyed at the impossibly beautiful Italian-Portuguese beauties down there, trying in vain to pick them up at the beach while the locals simply shrug and smile. Nice, really.

But then the love motels became really cute. In a non-sexual way. Pet shop owner Robson Marinho of Gang dos Bichos opened the Pet Love Motel above his shop: A dogs-only love motel with a headboard resembling a dog bone, thick curtains for privacy, a in-room dvd player for the amorous canines and an in-house artifical insemination service for female dogs who don’t become pregnant offhand.

Marinho’s partners are the folks behind Opium, Sao Paulo’s poshest (human) love motel: Marinho’s business partners own seven love motels for humans in Sào Paulo, including the island-themed Caribe and another called Opium. The air-conditioned pet love motel room, with a paw print decorative motif, has a special control panel to dim the lights, turn on romantic music or play films.

“The owner has to know what kind of DVD will excite his or her dog,” Marinho said with a chuckle.
