This scary looking creature is, in fact, a dog. Its short, patchy pieces of hair, spindly, hairless little legs and protruding tongue were enough to ensure that “Yoda” now officially holds the title: “World’s Ugliest Dog”.
This 14-year-old Chinese Crested and Chihuahua mix, won this prestigious award at the 23rd annual contest at the Sonoma Marin Fair in California on Friday.
It’s owner Terry Schumacher says that the rodent-like creature has come a long way since being found abandoned behind an apartment building. Initially she thought the “dog” was a rat.
It seems there’s a definite trend in recent years as the award went to a one-eyed Chihuahua named “Princess Abby” last year and a pedigree Chinese crested in 1998. Another Chinese crested and Chihuahua mix won the title in 2007.
Dogs have identical DNA to wolves, so technically this hideous beast could be called a wolf. But what would you rather face in the dead of night, a wolf, or this horror? I know what my answer would be.
