PEANUT THE UGLIEST DOG 2014

Peanut, a miniscule mutt from North Carolina has been crowned the World's Ugliest Dog® 2014 winner at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Petaluma, California

Well it's here again....this year's ugliest dog has been crowned.
I can't say how times does flies. It's been a year since I did the same posting about this.
Fact is I wouldn't even have realised it if the headlines didn't appeared on the screen the moment I turn on my pc.  The actual competition was held on 20th June but hits the news only today.
As usual, I would just pick randomly the winner's pictures plus stories from the internet.... so big thank you to all the rightful owners.



This year's winner? A 2-year-old mutt named Peanut, whose wild white and brown hair, bulging eyes and protruding teeth belie his sweet, energetic personality.

Although Peanut is healthy now, his owner, Holly Chandler of Greenville, North Carolina, says he was seriously burned as a puppy, resulting in bald patches all over his body.

Chandler hopes Peanut's victory will help raise awareness about animal abuse.
 

"We're trying to use him as a poster child for what can happen to animals who are abused," she said.She plans to use the $1,500 prize to pay for other animals' veterinary bills.
The contest, held at the Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds in Petaluma, California, USA, is in its 26th year.
The dogs are scored by a three-judge panel in several categories, including special or unusual attributes, personality and natural ugliness.
The past five winners have included a duckfooted beagle, boxer and basset hound mix with a waddle, a Chinese crested and Chihuahua mix with a protruding tongue and short tufts of hair and a Chihuahua with a missing eye and a camel's back
