A Sad Day Indeed - World's Ugliest Dog & Florida Local Ugly Dog Contest Winners Passed Away Over Same Weekend
According to my guestbook page, information was passed along stating that both Zippy (local Bonita Springs Ugly Dog Contest Winner) & Sam (Voted World's Uglies Dog) have both died over the weekend. According to Kelly (Zippy's owner):
"With a sad heart, I just wanted you to know that the 'Grand Dam' of the Ugly Dog Contests, Zippy has passed away. Upon looking at the internet this morning, SAM, the World's Ugliest Dog has also passed away. I have been in touch with Susie, and we believe that they somehow were soulmates, and were meant to be together somehow, and hopefully in a better place."
Ugly dogs come and go...but it's the love that last's forever. During all my years of photographing the ugly dog contests, I noticed that the owners all had unconditional love for their pooches. I wish only the best for Susie and Kelly and hope to see them love (and enter) another ugly dog.
