worlds ugliest dog contest

boxers with underbites of the world unite! last week was your week!


June 26, 2009 (Petaluma, CA) – As the crowd chanted “Pabst, Pabst,” the celebrity judges deliberated between the so-named boxer-mix shelter dog and Rascal, a former world champion Chinese Crested to determine who would be the 2009 World’s Ugliest Dog Champion tonight at the Sonoma-Marin Fair. First timer Miles Egstad from Citrus Heights, California was stunned at Pabst’s win. “ I don’t think he’s that ugly!” he said of his boxer mix whose under bite was his most compelling physical feature. His sweet personality made him an audience favorite.

The Chinese Crested breed has dominated the contest for more than seven years and in this year’s contest represented more than 50% of the 2009 entries in the pedigree class. But Pabst, who was given his name because he had a “ bitter beer face”, according to his owner quickly won the crowd and the judges soon followed. Egstad, 25, first saw the contest on television and his friends urged him to enter his dog.

kate found this while looking for a cardigan corgi puppy. if you have any leads let her know. also dave said it sounds like this guy was writing the post while hiding in his closet. why do people think it's cool to have alligators and other amphibians? no cool. not cool at all.

it's not really a tribble (i also needed to look up what a tribble is). but i want one anyway. i love him. zach thinks he looks like a slipper. found over on cuteoverload.
