Another Petaluma scorcher for this year's Ugly Dog Contest! The 2009 champ was a new face who won me over with his pronounced underbite, which he uses like a scoop to get the food in at mealtime. Ha. Even though the last several years have featured lil pups like the late Gus, this time a big pup's top dog.
Four-year-old Pabst and his owner, Miles Egstad, came from Citrus Heights, CA — the Boxer mix was super sweet, loved the shade, and seemed to be rather sleepy before his turn on stage. Resting up for his time in the sun, I bet. We got a glimpse of Pabst, blue ribbon and all, so see one more cute pic (and hear what his owner had to say about the win) when you read more.
On the recognition: "This breed is not known for being ugly like the Chinese Crested. He's so ugly, he's adorable."
On the prize: "He's definitely getting a filet mignon, maybe not tonight, but he will. And getting his teeth cleaned, look at them!"
Congrats to Pabst and Miles and stay tuned for more Ugly Dog coverage next week!

2Aw he's cute! My grandma's Pekingese kind of looked like that, but it wasn't nearly as pronounced.
3Awww, he isn't that ugly. Crazy teeth though. I do suggest the cleaning
4ugly and scary-but glad he is sweet and lovable!!
5In my opinion hes a good looking dog! not ugly. Nice color too
6Too bad ugly chicks weren't so adorable!
7THAT DOG IS NOT UGLY!!!!!
8he's not that ugly
9I really dislike animal contests in general and this is no exception.That dog is adorable.
10Pabst is just adorable!
11The teeth give him attitude.
I had two great Boxer dogs.
What are you talking about? He's such a cutie!
12how is he ugly?! the one before was completely ugly, not this guy!
13he is not ugly at all, how do they judge this? I got this stray that picked us up from the street and he looks so much like a rat that when I take him out, people go "oooh look a rat!". lol this guy is no where ugly!
14How on earth is that dog ugly?
15I am glad to hear people saying that Pabst is not ugly! He is really gorgeous for a Pit/Boxer mix (that's what they were saying he was on my local news station), especially to have been at an animal shelter. It makes me wonder what they would say about my dog, whom I think is absolutely adorable!
16TOTALLY adorable! I own 2 boxers and their under bite is one of my favorite things about them.
17I don't get it. I think this dog is totally cute and that his teeth give him some character. I've seen "winners" from previous years that were more in keeping with the title they won, but I don't get this year's choice at all.
18That dog is adorable!!!
19He's so cute... I work with one of the dogs owners. Pabst is a rockstar...
