PETALUMA, Calif. (AP) — A nine-year-old English bulldog was named the winner of the 2018 World's Ugliest Dog contest in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Zsa Zsa won the title recently at the Sonoma-Marin Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds in Petaluma.
The dog's owner Megan Brainard of Anoka, Minnesota, will receive $1,500 for Zsa Zsa's win. Brainard found Zsa Zsa on a pet-finding site, according to the contest bio.
Dogs in the competition flaunt their imperfections — some have hairless bodies, others lolling tongues. The dogs and their handlers walk down a red carpet. The dogs are evaluated by a panel of judges.
