Hairless Pooch Wins Ugly Dog Contest
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (AP) -- The owners of the other contestants in this year's World's Ugliest Dog Contest may have thought their pooches had a chance - until they saw Sam.
The 14-year-old pedigreed Chinese crested recently won the Sonoma-Marin Fair contest for the third consecutive time...

Definitely the cataracted eyes, and the crooked teeth, that seal it. If he had regular brown "dog" eyes, he would only be as homely as a Naked Mole Rat or a Sphynx breed of cat.

I think they should do a follow up with this and maybe a video to show this dog's personality. You would think this dog would be in some commercials. How could the owners had not trained it for profit I do not know. I have never seen such a pitiful looking animal. Its hard to look at and not wonder if its a nice doggie or a mean one!

Thanks for that Suzie.....I was wondering what breed it really was.
Oh and Doc, Ha Ha...yeah, well...do you think the dog is in great pain? They said his health is failing, no doubt they are going to have to deal with some type of mercy for the animal in the near future.....wouldn't want the dog in pain.
Until then I suppose it will just be pain on others eyes because looking at the poor animal does hurt the eyes a bit huh? Bless it's heart!
When I was reading it, I was wondering if the owners tossed a coin to see who had to take it for walks. Can you imagine walking that dog in your neighborhood?

I question the decency of any owner that allows a dog to deteriorate to that state. IMO, that's inhumane. I was thinking along the same lines, poor doggie looks like he is suffering from dental problems, cataracs, and some kind of skin disease. (I know they are supposed to be hairless, but his skin looks diseased) I am such a sucker for animals, but unlike PETA freaks, I actually try to do what I can to help them.

Chinese Crested. There are a variety of looks apparently. I found a bunch of them here. http://www.gotpetsonline.com/pets-images/chinese-crested-dogs.shtml
Don't worry, that Tempest person will put us in place and tell us the TRUTH. That this is not really an ugly little dog. It is the remains which came out of the snake which allegedly ate the human.
I sure do look forward to that story and the REAL pictures behind it.

Poor thing.
This dog has the same claim to fame that Michael Moore does, only the dog is innocent.
I think the contest is a little sick, and I agree with DD about the dog's health. Some Chinese Cresteds are hairless, but they don't look like this thing. This poor creature looks like a gargoyle.

I would happly put that creature down, it serves no useful purpose nor does its existance enrich the lives of others. its a waste of breathe and in insult to the canine species.
It can't help its condition and there's no reason to put it down unless it's suffering and can't be helped. If there's an insult in its existence, it's to the animal kingdom delivered by its loathesome caretakers. Actually, I'd take it in a heartbeat, get it medical care and let it run with my others until it no longer enjoyed life, if it can still be helped at all. It's true I would probably not gaze on it with rapture, but I would treat it kindly and give it care and affection (probably with my eyes closed, but nevertheless I'd give it). Dogs, even this dog, are man's best friend. They bring us comfort and unconditional love and protection. Here's a little something for you to dwell on - perhaps it will soften your heart a bit:
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food and water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing: they miss someone very special to them; who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to break away from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. YOU have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
THEN YOU CROSS RAINBOW BRIDGE TOGETHER...

That dog barely nosed out twins Helen Thomas and Betty Friedan for the title.
After the sixth round, the leg and ass presentation, he and Freidan were tied for second, just behind Thomas. Desperate, his owner had him bare his teeth during the final, overall appearance competition. That stroke of genius finally clinched it for the pooch . . . barely. As it was, Thomas outscored him in three of the seven categories.

An old man and his dog were walking down a dirt road with fences on both sides. They came to a gate in the fence and looked in. It was nice grassy, woody areas, just what a 'huntin' dog and man would like, but, it had a sign saying 'No trespassing', so they walked on. They came to a beautiful gate with a person in white robes standing there. "Welcome to Heaven" he said. The old man was happy and started in with his dog following him. The gatekeeper stopped him. "Dogs aren't allowed. I'm sorry, but he can't come with you."
"What kind of Heaven won't allow dogs? If he can't come in, then I will stay out with him. He's been my faithful companion all his life. I can't desert him now."
"Suit yourself, but I have to warn you. the Devil's on this road and he'll try to sweet talk you into his area. He'll promise you anything, but the dog can't go there either. If you won't leave the dog, you'll spend Eternity on this road."
So the old man and dog went on. They came to a rundown fence with a gap in it, no gate, just a hole. Another old man was inside. "S'cuse me, Sir, my dog and I are getting mighty tired. Mind if we come in and sit in the shade for awhile?"
"Of course. There's some cold water under that tree over there. Make yourselves comfortable"
"You're sure my dog can come in? The man down the road said dogs weren't allowed anywhere."
"Would you come in if you had to leave the dog?"
"No sir, that's why I didn't go to Heaven. He said the dog couldn't come in. We'll be spending Eternity on this road, and a glass of cold water and some shade would be mighty fine right about now. But, I won't come in if my buddy here can't come too, and that's final."
The man smiled a big smile and said, "Welcome to Heaven."
"You mean this is Heaven? Dogs ARE allowed? How come that fellow down the road said they weren't?"
"That was the Devil and he gets all the people who are willing to give up a life long companion for a comfortable place to stay. They soon find out their mistake, but then it's too late. The dogs come here, the fickle people stay there. God wouldn't allow dogs to be banned from Heaven. After all, He created them to be man's companions in life. Why would he separate them in death?"

Rainbow Bridge?!?!
Please!!! :rolleyes:
:soap:
As a boy I have kept and bred working dogs, part of that responsibility is ensuring a standard of quality, when people start comparing themselfs to dogs then they are lowering themselfs to the status of a dog.
Have some pride in your existence, we haven't survived and grown to become the dominant specices on this planet due to empathy and compassion, we hold a position of dominance because we can clearly see what is wrong and what is right.
We foster what is good and remove what is fowl, that "dog" is an abomination and is not something to be encouraged, how long until pet mutalation becomes considered fashionable? Is it true that in parts of the US you can get your pets ears peirced??
There are elements of society that need to be reigned in, promoting acceptance of such an abomination only goes towards feeding a sick element of society. It's wrong and in your heart you know it.
We were given dominance over the animals as stewards, same as man was given the position of head of the wife. We have those respective positions NOT to prove how dominant we are, but how wisely we rule, obey, and coexist.
Killing that animal serves no other purpose than to do the very thing you acuse us of for supporting his life . . . encouraging an abomination. You get very close to defining life by it's quality, and anyone who can treat an animal with such disrespect will sure have no problem killing a person they consider of an "abominable" state as well -- do you advocate killing people suffering bad skin conditions who have lost all their hair, have bad teeth and cataracts, and are ugly?
That animal (probably) has great worth to it's owner, and most likely fills their life with a type of joy you will never know. You bred and owned dogs, doesn't sound much like you ever had a pet -- there is a difference.
I'm not trying to pick a fight, but your post was offensive to me, I chose to respond.

Actually, I saw this pooch in a live action shot on Fox News. He was ugly all right, and damn proud of it -- his . . . er . . . tail wagging like mad. But he looks a lot worse in this still. Must be the light. In this picture he has a demonic glow, but it doesn't seem to be so much as emanating from him as much as it seems to be shining down on him, spotlighting him. Helen Thomas must be standing right next to him.
Probably an edited group shot of the top finishers. One's mind can comprehend only so much ugly at a time. Beyond a certain point, the grotesque begins to blur, overlap, coalesce into a single nightmarish blob akin to Thomas’ blunt, shapeless “figure.”

Prez, we were just wondering if the dog has been neglected. I'm sure getting old is hard to handle but we know what the dog is SUPPOSED to look like and it looks neglected. I think it's rather hideous for the owners to exploit it like that by entering it in the contest to begin with. They need the vet to cure it's skin problem and eye problems and teeth problems. Don't you agree?
Suzie
07-08-2005, 09:57 PM
I think they needed a vet a looooong time ago. :( I fear it may be too late to cure, but certainly they could give comfort.
In the story she does mention pills the dog takes, but it doesn't say how long they have been given to the pup.
Warlady
07-08-2005, 10:14 PM
