A 2-year-old mutt named Peanut is the new ‘World’s Ugliest Dog’ Posted on June 21, 2014 by GuideLive Group Holly Chandler kisses Peanut, a mutt who is suspected of being a Chihuahua-Shitzu mix, at The World's Ugliest Dog Competition in Petaluma, California on June 20, 2014.

(AP) — It’s that time of year again when dogs with unusually large heads, hairless bodies and other oddities compete to be the World’s Ugliest Dog. This year’s winner? A 2-year-old mutt named Peanut, whose wild white and brown hair, bulging eyes and protruding teeth belie his sweet, energetic personality. Although Peanut is healthy now, his owner, Holly Chandler of Greenville, North Carolina, says he was seriously burned as a puppy, resulting in bald patches all over his body. Chandler hopes Peanut’s victory will help raise awareness about animal abuse. “We’re trying to use him as a poster child for what can happen to animals who are abused,” she said. She plans to use the $1,500 prize to pay for other animals’ veterinary bills. The contest, held at the Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds in Petaluma, California, is in its 26th year. The dogs are scored by a three-judge panel in several categories, including special or unusual attributes, personality and natural ugliness. The past five winners have included a duck-footed beagle, boxer and basset hound mix with a waddle, a Chinese crested and Chihuahua mix with a protruding tongue and short tufts of hair and a Chihuahua with a missing eye and a camel’s back.

Mješanac Peanut 20. lipnja u Petalumi u Kaliforniji okrunjen je kao najružniji pas na svijetu U bizarnom natjecanju koje se održalo već 26. godinu zaredom sudjelovali su psi s ogromnim glavama, bez dlake te s nizom drugih tjelesnih neobičnosti. Dvogodišnji Peanut ima divlju bijelu i smeđu dlaku, izbuljene oči i zube koji strše – ukratko, svi znakovi njegove slatke i energične osobnosti lako su uočljivi. Njegova vlasnica Holly Chandler iz Greenvillea u sjevernoj Kaliforniji našla ga je ozbiljno opečenog kao štenca, no sada je zdrav i dlaka mu je već prekrila nekadašnje opekline. 'Koristimo ga kao maskotu za loše postupanje s psima', rekla je Holly Chandler koja se nada da će njezin pobjednik Peanut skrenuti pažnju na problem neodgovornih vlasnika i maltretiranja pasa. Holly Chandler potrošit će svih 1.500 dolara nagrade za veterinarske preglede životinja kojima to treba.
