Pabst gets Blue Ribbon for Uglyness


Sometimes it pays to stand out for the wrong reasons!

Or at least it did for one canine participant in the World’s Ugliest Dog contest held Friday at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Petaluma, Calif., according to the Associated Press.

Pabst, a 4-year-old boxer-mix with a scrunched face and prominent under-bite, was crowned the winner of the annual contest in what was considered an upset victory over former champion Rascal, a pedigree Chinese crested.

Pabst’s owner, Miles Egstad of Citrus Heights, Calif., received a prize of $1,600, pet supplies and a modeling contract for his pooch with House of Dog.

In the pedigree category, Miss Ellie, a blind 15-year-old Chinese crested hairless, took home top honors.
