Canine Beauty Queens

The World's Ugliest Dog Contest Crowns Another Winner

— July 11, 2010 — Lifestyle
It looks like we have another prissy beauty queen to deal with; this time, however, she is a dog, and she is not that beautiful. This year's winner of the World's Ugliest Dog Contest is a genetic freak -- it is easy to see why she won.

Princess Abby Francis is her name, and being a Chihuahua-mix is her game. With spindly, spider-like legs and a permanently-closed eye that makes her look like she is flirting with you, it is no wonder that she is the winner of the World's Ugliest Dog Contest.
