An odd-looking chihuahua called Princess Abby has won the dubious title of world’s ugliest dog 2010.
The grey and white pooch – which has a curved back and legs (as well as a scrunched up left eye) won the annual World’s Ugliest Dog contest in Northern California.
Each year the strangest looking dogs are rewarded, this years winner was malformed Princess Abby – rescued off the streets just five months ago.
Owner Kathleen Francis – who won $1,000 – says she ignored how the four-year-old looked when she took her in from the Humane Society which had found her malnourished and flea-infested.
To scoop the title, Princess Abby beat 14 other dogs in her category before making it to the final… where one look had her competition howling in horror.
Event vet Karen “Doc” Halligan said, “Princess Abby is the poster child for spaying and neutering your animals. Her looks probably stem from being inbred.”
The World’s Ugliest Dog Contest event is now in its 22nd year. Miss Ellie, last years winner had been due to challenge to regain the title but died earlier this month at the age of 17.
She is not ugly!!
That dog is not ugly at all. She’s actually quite adorable. I know what the ugly dog usually looks like, and is so ugly it’s cute, this dog doesn’t have an ugly bone in he body.
