World's Ugliest Dog contest names winner

Gus, a hairless Chinese crested canine with cancer, was given the title of World’s Ugliest Dog at the 20th annual event in Petaluma, CA on June 20. Gus was rescued from a neglectful situation and his guardian, Jeanenne Teed of St. Petersburg, FL, says the first prize will go toward the dog’s chemotherapy. Gus beat out Elwood, last year’s winner, who came out of retirement to participate in the event. Click here for more pics.
