U is for Ugly

Pawing through the Alphabet

U is for Ugly

Ugly: Hairless, buggy eyes, blotchy skin, tufts of hair, pointy teeth, pimples, moles and warts. One red eye. Yup, I have to say that Sam was the ugliest dog in the world. And he had the credentials to prove it: he was undefeated in the World's Ugliest Dog competition. But never fear, there are plenty more contenders out there!







Every summer pet parents bring their dogs to Petaluma California to compete in the World's Ugliest Dog competition. The DVD, Worst in Show, documents some of the canine competitors and their quirky families. The film is not so much about what makes a dog beautiful or ugly, but about the desire to win, the love for pets, and the pros and cons of competition. And, speaking of competition, read on for your chance to win one of THREE Worst in Show DVDs!

Some of the dogs you'll meet are Winston, a shepherd with a scar on his head, who isn't really ugly or even homely. Rascal, an African sand dog (a hairless breed) with big ears and a blond topknot of hair. Icky, an adorably ugly Chinese crested with a Mohawk. And Pabst, a bulldog with an underbite.



While some of the pet parents are down to earth, others are fiercely competitive. Icky seems to be a crowd favorite, but you might cheer for your own favorite ugly dog as you watch. Worst In Show was directed by award winning filmmakers John T. Beck and Don R. Lewis and is distributed by Breaking Glass Pictures. Check it out on Facebook and YouTube.

Worst In Show

Are you looking for a great new DVD? One featuring lots of dogs? Do you like watching scenes of adorable pooches, perfectly groomed and proudly prancing around a show ring? Well, Worst in Show might be the DVD for you! It depends upon your definition of "adorable." Because these dogs in this movie are all competitors for the title of World's Ugliest Dog!

Synopsis: 
Every summer, proud dog owners bring their canine companions to Petaluma, California, to compete for a highly coveted title. No, this isn't your standard Best in Show championship, this is the contest for the World's Ugliest Dog. For more than 20 years, the grassroots contest has gained worldwide media attention and has given rise to a new class of competitors. 2008 was a particularly competitive year: vying for the top spot was Rascal (the veteran), Icky (the Rookie), and Pabst (the underdog).

Worst in Show is a fascinating documentary that examines the many ways our society defines beauty and takes viewers behind the scenes at an event where the competitors never fail to impress. Equally impressive, however, is the care and devotion of their human counterparts, all of whom prove that love goes beyond skin deep.

I know I'm going to get a copy of Worst in Show, and I bet I'll meet a lot of adorable dogs, too!
