This year's World's Ugliest Dog is a Pekingese named Wild Thang. The dog, from Coos Bay, Oregon, has competed in five previous World's Ugliest Dog competitions, but only won this Friday (June 21).

Wild Thang and owner Ann Lewis will take home a cheque for $5,000 and be flown to New York for a special appearance on NBC's The Today Show next Monday.
