Scooter Wins World's Ugliest Dog

The world's ugliest dog has been crowned. But he has a beautiful story.

Scooter, a Chinese Crested canine with deformed legs, won the title Friday at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in California. 

This event isn't about making fun of animals like Scooter. It's about promoting animal adoption and sharing inspirational stories of dogs who overcame adversity. 

Scooter escaped being put down after being dropped off at animal control in Arizona. Instead, he was adopted into a good home, with a good life.

And now he's a prize winner. Scooter was recognized with 15-hundred dollars and a trophy.
