    Umm...make sure you have a look at Monica mmkay? Click on the "slide show" under the dog's pic. I think she (Monica who named the dog Ugly) is pic 2 or 3....yeah..the "dog's" ugly...sure.
     
    I am glad this dog got a home....but come ON..I have seen PUREBRED dogs that were actually UGLY (I don't like that word applied to them anyhow....I usually use "not my cup of tea";)...I think the World's Ugliest Dog title was OWNED by a purebred Crested no???

    he looked like a cute dog to me. i guess ugly is in the eye of the beholder?

    If that dog is ugly, most of the dogs I see on a daily basis must be hideous.
     
    The only thing that's ugly there is the fact that no one could see the beauty of that dog except a blind man.
     
    And yeah the World's Ugliest Dog was a purebred crested that just happened to loose the genetic lottery and wound up with just about every genetic defect known in the breed all at once.

    Aww, he wasn't ugly at all.
    I hate when people think its cute or amusing to bestow negative names to animals. Like being called Ugly is gonna help his chances to get adopted.

    Am hoping that maybe the paper took Monica's comments out of context and as the shelter director that wasn't exactly what she said. DH was misqouted once by our local rag. He was mortified to find that they qouted him as saying, " I like to match my boat and that is the main thing I look at when I pick clothes out for racing". (Article about sailing clothing) It took him months to live that one down.

    How could anyone think this dog is ugly?  I think he is beautiful.  I would be proud to own that magnificant specimen of a mixed breed.  Probably has a great personality too.

    Wow, i am biting my tongue about things to say concerning Monica (but please feel free to chime in so i won't feel so bad!).  That is an absolutely adorable dog, what is wrong with people! 
     
    ETA:  The more i look at that dog the more handsome i think he is.  sheesh!

    LOL....the list I got the story from...LOL....there was a lady there that very kindly offered this gem...
     
    "It's perhaps obvious, but I don't think Monica has any mirrors in her home".
    • Gold Top Dog
    I just laughed so hard i started choking!!
    • Gold Top Dog
    He is not ugly,although Monica may want to change her name!
    • Gold Top Dog
    RIGHT?
    lol....I think Oscar Wilde would have liked her quip no doubt. Not cruel...until you think about it a second. lmao...

    I'm certainly glad Duke received an excellent home and a name suitable for his status as a noble canine.
     
    I have serious doubts about the suitability of a shelter director who gives animals derogatory names.

    Imagine if Monica put a personal ad in, how would she describe herself? 
    • Gold Top Dog
    That dog is downright adorable. 

    I'm getting this dog and I'm naming it Monica....
    note:  remember - eye of the beholder... [:)]
