HAIRY DOGS ...


Dear readers, this week we’re looking at dogs - ‘H’ IS FOR *H*AIRY – AND WORLD’S UGLIEST DOGS!
A British dog named Mugly has beaten some very stiff – and unattractive – competition to be crowned the World’s Ugliest Dog. The Chinese crested canine’s short snout, beady eyes and white whiskers earned it the esteemed title at the annual contest at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in California (below) recently.
Mugly – an eight-year-old rescue dog who was named Britain’s ugliest dog in 2005 – won the honour by beating 28 other dogs of questionable beauty from around the world, including ones named Handsome Hector, Creature, Rue, Icky, Spam-O-Rama, and Mouse.
Here are some images from the contest: 
ANY OTHER HAIRY /UGLY PETS YOU KNOW OF?
And do check out other posts - Alphabe-Thursday  @ Jenny Matlock, Ruby Tuesday & Rednesday!
And, finally, thank you to all my dear readers who have visited or commented. And to new followers too.
Have a great weekend!
Enjoy and see you next time,
XOXO LOLA:)

Hi Lola and Nora,

Some of the dogs without fur, are not the most handsome, but know the owners must love them.
Last night I watched Trinny and Susannah's show and they were giving dog owners a makeover. Was really funny as a lot of them looked like their dogs.

Happy week
Hugs

Luckily they don't know they're ugly. I don't like the way the British dog is dressed-up, though. Now that IS making fun of him!

Awww, they're really cuties, in their own special way! My vote is the one showing off his belly, and his tongue! Goodness, he's something close up!

Ames said...

Some are cute. I feel sorry for the dogs that have no teeth and their tongues hang out. Could you imagine your own tongue hanging out?~Ames

There are some cute little faces there - but that pug - now that's an ugly little face!

Ralph said...

These all have a real inner beauty, loyalty and love - good pets that are aesthetically challenged! Congratulations to Mugly!
