UGLY? who are they calling ugly?

    This post got me thinking, is there really and "ugliest dog"? So I looked it up....
    wow...there really is such a  thing. I honestly don't think these dogs had much for a family tree. Maybe a branch or two....Kind of sad the way people are proud of having a dog that they know is probably so inbred they have a chance of getting a reward for showing it off...

    I actually thought it was a joke about the Chinese Crested...like a photoshop type of thing...But i guess not...

    That dog is downright adorable. 

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



     
    I'm sorry, but this dog just reminds me of that lady that can make her eyeballs pop out of their sockets...
    Great pic though, she looks so suprised...."is that treat for me?!?!?!"

    Definitely agree that Ms. Monica probably doesn't own a mirror....that was a good one!! [:D
     
    I thought he was gorgeous! Not an ugly bone in his body as far as I'm concerned. I'm so glad he found a good home.

    Imagine if Monica put a personal ad in, how would she describe herself? 

     
    A great personality? I think only guys who have been "set up" with a blind date would understand this....

    I didn't think that dog was ugly.  Not by a long shot.  Dumb people.

    Um... 'Ugly' is gorgeous!  He's got a beautiful face with so much expression.  People need to get their eyes checked.

    Tip for Monica: Where a shirt of the proper size the day the people from the local news are coming by for an interview. They might just want to take your picture.

    Who ARE they calling Ugly?  Certainly not the dog.  He's aDORable!!!!

    The first thing I thought when I saw the first pic was that the dog had a beautiful profile.
     
    The director, OTOH, needs to at least re-evaluate the size of the shirt she is wearing.[sm=uhoh.gif]

    Personally I think that dog was very cute! I have seen dogs that were way less cute and I still did not in any way consider them ugly. I also think that was  mean for her to name the dog that, I though shelters usually tried to give the dogs CUTE names to help them get adopted, at least thats what the shelter I volunteer at does. Not to mention so what if the dog was in a kennel with purebreds, not all purebreds are adorable. I am glad he found a good home, and that the owner changed his name. I would also say that dog is much cuter then Monica!!

    I have never seen an ugly animal in my life, especially that one. Perhaps the lady who is in charge needs a career change, no, not retail, perhaps hearding sheep out in a big field somewhere. A shirt that fit wouldn't have hurt any either[;)]  I think she really needs to consider another line of work, how does that sound, the director of the center had the audacity to name a poor animal on death row "ugly" that just makes me so hoppin mad you don't even know. For all of our over fourteen years having boxers, you don't know how many times people have told us, "oh, theyre so ugly theyre cute" not true.

    Just in case Baby  Houston's not cute enough, Momma's beauty queen!

    In the slideshow, I looked at the pic of the director for telltale signs of narcotic usage and couldn't see any. Because this dog is anything but ugly. And a blind man has a better sense of vision with just his fingers. Now, that's irony. OTOH, kudos to the director and her "idiosyncratic" sense of aesthetics for keeping him past his "dead dog walking" day. For that, I forgive her oversight in naming him.
     
    ETA:
    This is what she thought was ugly.
