Is it possible for a dog to be so ugly that they’re actually adorable? The short answer is definitely yes! The longer answer is that there are no ugly dogs. However, some of these dogs may have you wondering about that.
Meet seventy-five ugly dogs who will find their way into your heart.
Here they are:
Here is one muddy dog who still knows exactly how to look cute. She was trying to look innocent and like she didn’t just roll in a puddle before this picture was taken. We can see the mud. She’s not fooling us.
