Oohhh man. That thing looks like it died twice and was resurrected. My family and I had a good laugh about it.

You can also buy magnets and T-shirts!

Would you believe I found an uglier dog?

That is indeed the ugliest dog I have ever seen.

Don't look at it if you have a weak stomach.

Argh! Too...Hideous! It burns my eyes!

Look thee not upon the Satanic image of this foul beast, for thine eyes shall surely be burnt from thy skull.

eh gads! I have sat here 5 minutes trying to think of something nice to say..I am at a total loss of niceness..its like every known horror rolled up into one little doggie..I think I'm going to be sick.

Those dogs aren't ugly

I do not find this thread funny at all.
That dog has been exposed to malnutrition, beatings and God knows what else.
It is thoroughly disgusting and perverse that humans torture an animal like that only in order to win a "prize".

Hmmm... A Hell Hound. Challange Rating 3.

Are you sure? Maybe it's just what that breed looks like?

What the hell is up with the three dew-claws on the front leg? That is just freaky.

It 'may' have been abused which would explain why it was a rescue but more importantly it appears to suffer congenital defects. Look at the teeth and jaw. Look at the extra dew claws. Ahhh nothing like inbreeding to really screw up the gene pool.

 

[arildno]

No, I'm not sure.
However:
Either, there has been systematic inbreeding going on to create this creature, or the creature has been abused.

Neither of which options I regard as more defensible than the other.

I've searched in vain for the old thread here, but does this remind anyone of the dead 'la chupacabra' that was allegedly found a while ago?

The Chinese Crested is a AKC dog, and the the one in the photo was a rescued animal, and it is older. The claws are horrid, and really need some work, but because they have grown so long the flesh under them has also grown makeing triming very bloody and painful. But it still should be done.

Hey! I just got a manicure last week.

Yea, I don't see myself cuddling up to that dog. Someone with a dedicated heart to ugly dogs will have to take that task on.
