The owners of the other contestants in this year's World's Ugliest Dog Contest may have thought their pooches had a chance — until they saw Sam.

The 14-year-old pedigreed Chinese crested recently won the Sonoma-Marin Fair contest for the third consecutive time, and it's no surprise.

The tiny dog has no hair, if you don't count the yellowish-white tuft erupting from his head. His wrinkled brown skin is covered with splotches, a line of warts marches down his snout, his blind eyes are an alien, milky white and a fleshy flap of skin hangs from his withered neck. And then there's the Austin Powers teeth that jut at odd angles from his mouth.

He's so ugly even the judges recoiled when he was placed on the judging table, said his proud owner, Susie Lockheed, of Santa Barbara.

Seriously the ugliest dog I've seen with the two eyes inside of my head…. Now, with the eyes outside of my head, well– that's something completely different.

Really? I have dreams about bunnies and care bears. They hop through fields of green grass…. mmmm green grass.

I AM NOT AFRAID OF THE WANG CAKE, but I AM afraid of this!!!

Bunnies and Care Bears?!?!?! What are you? A 4-year old girl? (or a Eunuch perhaps)

Five actually, and I like My little ponies and my friend… Mango the Zombie.

What kind of a sick person doesn't like Care Bears? You freak!

I like Care Bears. Quite tasty in a cream sauce.
