Underbite? Well, yeah, but he’s got a great personality. He’s also just been named the World’s Ugliest Dog for 2009. This unlikely celebrity, Pabst, named for the beer, won over the crowd at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Petaluma this past weekend to take the championship title.

BOGOTA (AFP) — Not satisfied with social networking sites for humans, a Colombian engineer has launched mypetbum.com, which aspires to become a Facebook for cats and dogs.

...No one seems to know how many there are.  Passersby are too busy going to and fro their business to contemplate the growth of their ranks.  They are the “canchosos” (street dogs) who roam freely.  The authorities wrestle with what to do about their numbers.  But it’s hard to take an accurate “dog count” when puppies can be born the minute after the last census comes in.

There are rogues, leaders of the pack and runts.

These are the stray dogs of Bogota, the street dogs now featured as “A Dog’s Life” in bogotafreeplanet.com.

They come in all breeds, mostly half-breed; make behind bushes and under trees their “bed-time” and easily stroll Bogota’s downtown streets like a mangier breed of touristas.
