Ugliest dog: 3 legs, 1 eye, no hair, all winner

PETALUMA, Calif. (AP) - Gus the dog has three legs, one eye and no hair, except for a white tuft on the top of his head. He's a real winner. The pedigree Chinese crested won the World's Ugliest Dog contest on Saturday at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Northern California. His owner, Jeanenne Teed, brought Gus all the way from St. Petersburg, Fla., to compete for the dubious distinction After the excitement of the moment, Teed characterized her dog's reaction: "Well, I think right now he's ready for a nap." The Chinese crested breed is a popular choice in this annual contest. Last year's champ, Elwood, was a Chinese crested and Chihuahua mix. Gus's owner won $500 and will be flown to New York to appear on "CBS This Morning." The event will be aired on the Animal Planet network in October.

Where the heck is PETA when you need them? I mean, do you think this dog enjoyed all of the negative exposure it received? His poor emotions have to be absolutely rocked! And now, this dog will never receive the mental therapy it really needs because it's owners will blow all of the money on carbon credits. Too bad. SOMEONE CALL PETA!!!
