...Chihuahuas, pugs and a Samoyed. There's Loki, the Chihuahua, who had a brother, Chocolate--he passed away. And then there's La Negra. She's a pug. And Ruby Baby. Taco Bell, he's a Chihuahua. Jaws, who's a Chihuahua. He's named Jaws because when I rescued him, I went to give him a kiss and he gave me two stitches in the face. He's a character...
...ever for an M.L.K. weekend, and among the top 10 weekends ever - and each of the four new releases earned more than $20 million. My Bloody Valentine killed (grossing $24.2 million); Notorious was B.I.G. ($24 million); Hotel for Dogs ($22.5 million) continued the pooch pash established by Beverly Hills Chihuahua, Bolt and Marley & Me; and the Kevin James comedy Paul Blart, Mall Cop doubled industry predictions to take in a Walmart-worthy $39 million.

"Dogs are not attached to any gender," says Alan Beck, a professor of human-animal studies at Purdue University. "They have no age, no race, no background. You don't have to justify anyone's love for them." With a few Cujo-like exceptions, dog movies...
...Internet Movie Database synopsize Rourke's '90s: "Turned down Bruce Willis' role in Pulp Fiction ... Filmed a role in [Terrence Malick's] The Thin Red Line that eventually got cut ... Walked off the set of Luck of the Draw when the producers refused to let him include his pet chihuahua in the movie." Instead, Rourke, who had been a serious amateur boxer as a teenager, went professional, submitting himself to the rigorous training, abuse and combat that would pay off in The Wrestler.
