7/22/2005: Ugly dog



Multiple people sent me this ugly dog photo, for which the pup involved won an Ugliest dog contest -- and rightly so. Sam is a hairless Chinese Crested, 14 years old, with cataracts, what looks like a skin condition...

...But Sam doesn't know or care. And that's why he's a Friday image.

Above all, what makes Sam special is that "he's so sweet," Lockhee says. Of her four dogs, Sam is her favorite.

"I've never had a dog this in love with me," she says, "And shortly after I rescued him (I took him in as a rescue), I was diagnosed with cancer. I had to be in radioactive isolation, where you're away from people for almost a week. But they let me take one dog. And I chose Sam. And he just made that time so much fun. He's so crazy. I've just never been this close to a dog before."

Thumbs up Don't judge a dog by his crazy eye.

This dog wouldn't have to dress up for Halloween. He even has the crazy eye going for him. Looks like he has had a rough life on the streets, with a hard core drug habit. Then you read what the owner said about him and he reminds me of the wrinkled old lady who made my first apartment by myself enjoyable. She was blind and made the best oatmeal cookies. Like the ugly dog it was best she could not see herself. Everyone just saw her heart. Much like the owner of the dog just sees his heart. Still he is scary looking.

Anyone else reminded of Jabba the Hut's little pointy-eared pal from "Return of the Jedi"?

Hate to tell you this, but this is not a picture of a dog. It's a picture of my old Grampa Saully. Got to be. He had that same hair and crazy-ass grin.

How sad and geeky is it that I know the creature's name is Salacious Crumb?

it isn't sad and geeky, at all. in fact, i'm glad you typed it because i've been sitting here using what little selfcontrol i have to keep from displaying my immense nerdness by typing it.

thank you wolf.

John... good one, dude.

To me, it looks like the dog was once stuffed by its beloved owner and kept on a shelf for prosperity. Then, the house caught on fire and the stuffed animal was found in the rubble... and the owner decided that it would have to keep the charred remains.
