These Contestants Seem To Have A Lot In Common, 29 April 2008

This sounded interesting, and it was, for the most part. I couldn't help but almost laugh out loud several times in the first half of this show, staring at these odd-looking little dogs. By the second half, however, it got familiar because all the contestants looked fairly similar. Where was the variety you see at regular dog shows? All these dogs were little, skinny things that looked like Chihuahuas. I did have one favorite, however, and actually jumped for the joy when he took first place! I don't want to name him, if anyone's reading this and hasn't seen the show.

The dogs were judged on first impressions (the "wow" factor); unusual attributes (warts, hairless, tongue hanging out, etc.); personality (peeing on one of the judges would get points), and audience reaction. The contest was divided into two categories, purebred and mixed, with an overall champion declared.

Most of the dogs were not only little but their tongues hung out to the side and they had "Mohawk" haircuts. Most of them also walked a little awkwardly. When several of them were profiled, they also had another similarity: they were dogs that were "handicapped" or unwanted. These owners did eventually take these various canines certainly gave them a ton of love.

The owners were varied more than the dogs but if I go into details on how strange some of them appeared, it might sound nasty. Suffice to say the dogs and their owners, by and large, were a unique group.

Anyway, we got some good looks at Victory, Lucille Bald, Archie, Elwood, Pee Wee, Jack, Munchkin, Tater Tot and a few more of these "world's ugliest dogs." You don't have to be an animal lover to enjoy this show that was seen on Animal Planet.
