This just goes to show: Love and compassion can help any goggie lead a wonderful, happy life.


Thanks to his bug eyes and his crooked teeth, Ug — a pointer cross dubbed Britain’s ugliest dog — sat unadopted for months in the Mayflower animal sanctuary in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, until 35-year-old April Parker saw a picture of the goggie and knew she had to bring him home.

Even though the partially blind pointer’s appearance is off-putting to most at first glance, Parker and her two teenage daughters couldn’t resist Ug’s shining personality, and adopted him after a visit to the Mayflower.

The family has since renamed him Doug, and they say he was worth every penny they paid for him.
“When people see him they do a double take,” Parker said. “He looks comical with his bug eyes and cross teeth and he’s always bumping into things. But he has a fantastic temperament and is really loving.”
Doug is a goggie that proves that looks aren’t everything, and he is doing wonderfully in his new home with the Parker family.

Ohai, hotdogs! Today is the fifth annual National Mutt Day — a holiday that celebrates and encourages the adoption of shelter dogs and provides fundraising donations to animal shelters around the United States. This year’s goal for the day? Save 10,000 mutts from euthanasia and/or a lifetime spent in a shelter.
National Mutt Day was founded by Colleen Paige, an animal behaviorist and goggie activist who has devoted her life to educating the public about the reality of strays, puppy mills and shelter dogs around America.
“National Mutt Day has helped save over 50,000 dogs since its inception,” Paige told Paw Nation in an interview. Her first and foremost goal for the day is to help shelter dogs find permanent homes, but she says the scope of the event goes well beyond just the adoption process. “People forget that if they aren’t adopting, they can still help local shelters.”
To learn more about National Mutt Day, check out the event’s official website, and if you’d like to participate, make sure to contact your local shelter. Helping mutts find forever homes is always a noble cause!
