Awww, poor things! They don't know they are ugly. : (
The last dog looks like yoda. A crotchety, unshaven yoda.
Ugly has more personality than cute. Cute breaks down to a few basic traits, which can be codified into "rules." Ugly embraces everything that isn't the norm. Mind you, a lot of wrinkly, big-eared dogs get that "Yoda" tag.
Jack, I like your assessment of ugly, especially your comment on the degree of personality.I think it takes more effort to pull off a good ugly than a good cute.
It's certainly tougher to be ugly. When I was a kid, there was this big cat in the neighbourhood, named "Heifetz."He looked like he'd been mangled by a dog: one eye, broken tail, snaggly fangs. All the kids were scared of him. But once, I came up to him, and petted him, and he was purring and as affectionate as any other kitty. Still scary, but a great cat.
