Madame Tussauds of Las Vegas is offering the public an opportunity to immortalize their pet by creating a life-like wax figure in its likeness.

If you have not been to Madame Tussauds, you ought to. In Las Vegas, they are located at the Venetian Hotel & Casino. The most strikingly life-like wax figures are on display there. Wax museums always bill themselves as having the most life-like figures. But at Madame Tussauds, you'll have to look very carefully at the figures to see if they are real or not. And the thing is that you don't want to look too close, because you always worry that it's real and it might move on you.

But for a price starting at $50,000.00, maybe more depending on size, they will make a life-like wax figure of your canine pal, in the same style and tradition of Madame Tussauds.

To do this, they must measure your pet in person. And they only do measurements at their studio in London, England. The price includes first-class travel to London, as well as a three-day stay for two at a hotel, plus meals. You also get a tour of the studio. The folks at Madame Tussauds will also provide you with a personal shopping service to help you select the perfect pet wear and accessories.

The finished product will be shipped to you, accompanied with a a short "Making Of ... " mini documentary DVD and photo album as a memento.

To take advantage of this new service, you'll have to visit Madame Tussauds of Las Vegas in person.
