PETALUMA, Calif. — A Chinese crested's short snout, beady eyes and
white whiskers earned it the title of World's Ugliest Dog at the annual
contest in Northern California on Friday. Competing for fame, $1,000 and a year's worth of dog cookies, Mugly
won the honor by beating out 28 other ugly dogs from around the world. The 8-year-old rescue dog from the United Kingdom will also be
invited for a photo shoot and will receive a VIP stay at the local
Sheraton. "I couldn't speak when they announced Mugly's name," said Bev
Nicholson, the dog's owner. "I didn't know which way to look. I was
shaking as much as the dog." It's not the first time Mugly has been recognized for his
unattractiveness. Nicholson said he was named Britain's ugliest dog in
2005.
