Gus, a one-eyed, three-legged dog, died yesterday in Florida, succumbing to skin cancer. He was nine.A hairless Chinese Crested dog who had been rescued from a crate in someone's garage, Gus garnered global attention when he was named the "World's Ugliest Dog" in a contest this past June. Fighting cancer at the time, Gus' guardian said that they would put the $1,600 cash prize towards Gus' radiation treatments.
Gus' endearingly misshapen appearance was part illness and part folly. He lost a leg to skin cancer, and an eye to a particularly ill-tempered tomcat.

How can you people think this dog is the uglies dog in the world, when it is so cute. Just because it has 3 legs and one eye doesnt mean it is ugly!!! My opinion is that everything or everybody is beautiful in their own way and I think that dog is very cute!!!
