July 13, 2012, 7:29 am -- /EPR NETWORK/ -- Bonlays has helped a British dog fly the flag whilst winning the ‘ugliest dog in the world’ competition in the USA. A Peterborough based Chinese Crested dog, named Mugly has been crowned as the ‘ugliest dog in the world’ winning the contest that took place in Petaluma, California wearing a very patriotic outfit.
Mugly wore a Union Jack ensemble that featured a sparkly blue, white and red hat, Union jack collar and Union Jack heart t-shirt. The Union Jack t-shirt was purchased by owner Bev Nicholson through Bonlays, one of the UK’s leading online pet retailers.
Ms Nicholson told the press: “I’m excited, I’m overwhelmed. I’m so proud to be taking him back to the UK. He’s a really sweet, sensitive dog.”
Beating 28 other canines to the title, eight year old Mugly won $1000, a photo shoot and a year’s supply of dog treats.
The moment that it was announced that the contest has been won by a Brit, there was a huge roar of clapping and cheers and Mugly’s outfit showed just how passionate he is about his country. Bonlays’ collection of Union Jack attire is proving to be very popular among dog owners with the Jubilee celebrations and the up and coming London 2012 Olympics.
Managing Director of Bonlays, Rob Doole commented: “We’re so proud that a British dog has won this annual contest and we couldn’t think of a more noteworthy winner than Mugly. He looked very smart in his all Union Jack outfit and deserves to have a year’s worth of treats.
“This contest has proven just how patriotic we Brits can be and with the Olympic Games soon approaching now couldn’t be a better time to get into the spirit of flying the Union Jack.”
Speaking of her purchase and the service that was provided to Mugly’s owner, Bev said: “I was very impressed, when I came across the Bonlays collection of dog clothing, at how vast it was. When I saw the Union Jack t-shirt I fell in love with it and knew that Mugly would look adorable in it.
“Although he may not be everything to look at you can’t help but love him and his personality is beautiful. It just goes to prove that it what’s inside that counts.”
