Bonita Springs Ugliest Dog Contest 2005 - November 5th, 2005

Once again, the flamingo island flea market has hosted the ugliest pet contest and I was there to snag some more shots. This year, unfortunately, got screwed up by hurricane wilma and had to be postponed a few times before the event could take place. So, there weren't as many contestants this year. Next year sounds like there will be much more involved. There are tenatively three separate categories:

1. Ugliest dog
2. Most beautiful dog
3. Owner & pet look-alike

So, if you think you've got what it takes, remember that the contest starts in august 2006 (depending if there are any more hurricanes).

This year's winners:
1. Betty Boop - she's the wrinkly Shar-Pei that also won in 2001.
2. Zippy - the hairless crested that is an astonishing 15 years old! Way to go Kelly (owner) on feeding him the right 'puppy chow'
3. Lamchop the slobbery bulldog.
