I've seen http://samugliestdog.com/ and all those dogs are more attractive...
1(And yes, I know, he's dead and a new dog is stepping up... but.. I can't vote. They all rate better than Sam and... wow.)
2I feel bad for the dog with only one eye though...He's a cutie
3ohmylord these are some hideously ugly dogs!
Why do they all have their tongues sticking out like that? Is that a requirement for the ugly dog contest?
4aww i think some of the dogs with their tounges out and the last one are adorable!
5It is really hard to choose, they are seriously hideous. Maybe they have great personalities? They would have to.
6Maggie Mae, I think the tongue sticking out is a genetic trait of the Chinese Crested breed (please someone correct me if I'm wrong--a friend told me that).
I think Tater Tot probably has a good personality, SuperJules. He looks like a bad ass. With his faux-hawk, his squinty eyes...he's all, "S'up, my homies?"
7I really do love animals but it would be really hard to love those Chinese crested dogs. I can't even imagine waking up in the middle of the night face to face with some of those faces. Scary!
8this is meaaan..
:(
9Oh, Tina. They don't know they're ugly! But I bet they sure are loved!
10Chinese cresteds are always ugly, I think. It seems too easy to vote for one of them. I kind of want to give the Italian greyhound and the stinky beagle a hug, poor things.
11You gotta read the descriptions on the website. This one of Elwood, who was rescued by the SCPA, is so funny and sad and sweet:
"As soon as I laid eyes on this little fellow who was shivering, had a runny nose, and making the strangest sounds I've ever heard I immediately took him in my arms and took him home. That's how it all began.
"Little did I know I had the ugliest dog. But as soon as friends, family, co-workers and strangers began to meet him they all told me he was UGLY! Some people just couldn't make out what he was. They would say what is that? A monkey? Others referred to him as a mutant, ET, Yoda, and the list goes on. Someone even asked me if he was "hatched". Another person referred to him as "an experiment gone wrong"! Wherever Elwood goes people are attracted to him by his looks. He bulging eyes, Mohawk and extremely long tongue, which at times flies in and out of his mouth like a lizard, adds to his unusual appearance.
"So although we love Elwood we do recognize that his looks are unique and to many his appearance is UGLY. So cast your VOTE FOR ELWOOD the sweetest ugliest dog you'll ever meet."
12It's ok Tina, I bet they get to wear a crown and get special tasty treats. Those dogs are getting so much attention, they probably don't know what to do with themselves!
13Awww! I think all the dogs are cute in their own little ways!
I'm sure they have the
best personalities!!
14Queen of Noise I'm glad you posted that, what a cute story. I'm really glad he has someone to love him. I voted for Pee Wee, the crooked schnozzle did it for me.
