World's Ugliest Dog Dies at 14

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Sam, the tiny dog whose hairless body and crooked teeth earned him a reputation as the World's Ugliest Dog, has died.



The pooch died Friday, just short of his 15th birthday, his owner said.

"I don't think there'll ever be another Sam," Susie Lockheed said, adding: "Some people would think that's a good thing."

Sam won the ugliest dog contest at the Sonoma-Marin Fair this summer for the third year in a row. The pedigreed Chinese crested had made appearances on TV in Japan, radio in New Zealand and in Britain's Daily Mirror tabloid. He also had met Donald Trump on a talk show set.

Lockheed said she initially was terrified of Sam when she agreed to take him in as a rescue dog six years ago on a 48-hour trial basis. Although she fell in love with him, his appearance repulsed her then-boyfriend and prompted the man to break up with her.

Later, however, Sam became a matchmaker by bringing together Lockheed and her current beau, who saw a picture of the two on an online dating site.



Lockheed said she had Sam euthanized after she learned Sam's heart was failing.

She said she's felt a little lost ever since, and is sleeping with Sam's favorite toy — a stuffed bear he picked up and carried home.
Christ! That thing looks like Spike from Gremlins. That gives meaning to "a face only a mother could love".

Christ almighty, that thing is fuckin hideous.
Looks more like a chupacabra than a dog, or a KNB puppet.

That dog looks like a monster in an 80's horror movie. If I saw those pictures without knowing what they related to my first thought would be "Wow, those are some great creature effects."

It was already decomposing. The owners didn't realize that it had already died a long time ago.

This is like when The Tick thought he had a dog, and it turned out to actually be a huge rodent. I've pulled things that look just like that out of rat traps in my basement.

I knew of the World's Ugliest Dog a number of months ago, but when I heard tell of the critter's timely death via CNN I knew what my current objective would have to be: to throw a party celebrating the life of such a "cute li'l pooch" (maybe I got a milkbone).

9 pm sharp, Wed.

Show up naked or don't show at all.

Jeez, I hoped they burned the corpse - something tells me that thing's coming back. Possibly to punish the owners for feeding it its own leg.

Competition must have been weak. She does have some creepy-ass Cloverfield legs though.

Put an eyepath over the wonky eye, and you'd have the cutest dog ever.

Yeah, it seems like half the people there got lost at the intersection leading to this one and World's Ugliest Chinese Crested.

While he did look frightening, if he was a sweet dog it really doesn't matter. I've had cute dogs and goofy looking dogs, and it's about the personality and not the appearence. RIP Ugly Dog
