[QUOTE]PETALUMA, Calif. — A 10-year-old mutt named Quasi Modo, whose spinal birth defects left him a bit hunchbacked, is the winner of this year's World's Ugliest Dog contest.
The pit bull-Dutch shepherd mix and his owner took the $1,500 prize Friday night, besting 25 other dogs competing in the contest that applauds imperfection, organizers said.
Quasi Modo was abandoned at an animal shelter before being adopted by a veterinarian in Loxahatchee, Florida, according to his biography posted on the contest's website.
"My appearance can be a little unsettling to some (I have had grown men jump on top of their cars to get away from me because they thought I was a hyena or Tasmanian devil) but once they get to know me I win them over with my bubbly personality," his biography said.[/QUOTE]

The lack of a neck is noticeable, but I've seen infinitely uglier dogs
Looks like a hyena-bear hybrid.
Those proportions look weird.
But it isn't ugly in any stretch of imagination, it's actually pretty cute.
Oh god, he looks like something from the Spore creature creator
It's disgusting that this is even a contest.

Looks more like he should be oppressing City 17
Man, this dog is nothing compared to the old record holder.

There are far uglier dogs. Hell just do a google search for "ugly dog".

oh wow, when i first saw that image years ago i thought it was just a halloween decoration or something
I think the one in OP looks pretty cool. I hope his life isn't suffering though.

It reminds me of a non-mutated Yao Guai.

Not the first.
Basically, birth defect with some of the vertabrae fused/simply not forming
That's just rude, the dog may be deformed, but he is not ugly in any way. I think it would have been a better decision to let Peanut, [URL="http://www.ohmidog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/peanut2.jpg"]a dog that truly deserves such title[/URL] (and also the title of the dog that gives the most nightmares), win again.
what's so ugly about it, it's just born without a portion of it's neck. looks fine otherwise?
i can imagine that one could mistake it for a small boar from the distance
That's the ugliest dog? It looks like a normal dog with no neck.
When I think of an ugly dog I think of something along the lines of this:

Looks like a Castlevania enemy to me.

I think it's body looks weird but it's face looks cute so this dog is no where near ugly.
Looks like an old roman painting or something.
It's pretty cute actually

That's a shame. I wonder how it turns..

They look pretty badass. I could easily pass it off as something other than a dog if i had one.
or "I genetically modified this dog to look and jump like a flea"
So he has a hunchback and no neck...
That's it? He's got a spine deformity, that doesn't necessarily mean he's ugly.
He's actually pretty damn cute.

It looks like a pet you'd find in Gecko or some other ghoul town.
Yeah, when I hear ugly dog I think more a long the lines of missing teeth, patchy fur, messed up eyes etc., a stereotypical street mutt.
This just makes me kinda sad feel bad for him since you can see by his hair he's quite well kept after and its an actual medical problem he has.
It's gorgeous!

These sorts of contests are never serious. They're more just a silly social event. It's not like they bring in mutilated animals to ridicule. It's why an odd-looking but none-the-less-cute dog won.
It looks like a canine version of L4D2's Jockey.

I don't think you understand:
[QUOTE]A good many of the contestant dogs have been rescued from shelters and puppy mills and the Contest has done much to raise awareness for adoption of dogs and how no matter their physical detractions, these animals are loving companions. And the dogs certainly seem to enjoy the adoration of the fans![/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]The annual World’s Ugliest Dog® Contest is not about making fun of “ugly” dogs, but having fun with some wonderful characters and showing the world that these dogs are really beautiful![/QUOTE]
