在美国，每年都会举办最丑狗大赛。网友们纷纷表示见过丑的，但是没见过这么奇怪的。下面就和小译一起看看在比丑大赛中拨得头筹的是哪一种狗狗吧！

Komondor

可蒙犬

According to the American Kennel Club, the Komondor is characterized by " imposing strength, dignity, courageous demeanor, and pleasing conformation."

美国养犬俱乐部表示，可蒙犬强壮、尊贵、勇敢并且外形惹人喜爱。

This large, muscular breed — also known as the Hungarian sheepdog — is also noted for a corded coat that looks like he is covered in white dreadlocks. The unusual coat helps him blend in with the sheep this working dog helps protect. It also keeps him warm out in the elements and protects him from prey.

可蒙犬是匈牙利牧羊犬的一种，它们体型庞大且肌肉发达，毛发像绳索一样悬挂在身上，好像整个身体都埋藏在白色的长发绺里了。这种特殊的毛发使得它们能够隐藏在所要保护的羊群中而不被发现。这一身毛发还能保持体温，减缓羊群的冲撞。

It takes a lot of work to keep the Komondor"s corded coat in good shape. If not cared for regularly, the dog"s white coat can look grimy and dull. The Komondor Club of America has this easier-said-than-done advice: "The best way to keep a Komondor clean is never to allow it to get dirty."

梳理和清洁可蒙犬的毛发是一项耗时耗力的工程。如果照看得不仔细，它们的白色毛发会变得脏乱且颜色暗淡。美国可蒙犬俱乐部提出了一个方法：“保持可蒙犬干净的最好方法就是不要让它变脏”，这个建议真是说起来容易做起来难。

Xoloitzcuintli

佐罗兹英特利犬

The Xoloitzcuintli goes by just the Xolo or the Mexican hairless dog, even though it also comes in a less common variety with a coat. The hairless version of the Xolo is noted for the absence of all (or nearly all) hair. Sometimes the dog will have a stubbly face and what looks like a mohawk, but is sleekly bare everywhere else on his body.

佐罗兹英特利犬，又称Xolo（英文简称）或者墨西哥无毛犬。不过也有例外，其中一个少见的品种是有毛发的。无毛的佐罗兹英特利犬因其全身几乎没有毛发而出名。它们的头部毛发短而粗，像莫霍克人一样，但是整个身体却光滑没有毛发。

The Xolo is one of the world"s oldest and rarest breeds, according to the AKC, and is the first dog of the Americas. The breed comes in toy, miniature and standard sizes and comes in 10 different colors. With a temperament that can be calm, aloof and trainable, the Xolo is considered a national treasure in Mexico, says the AKC.

美国养犬俱乐部表示，佐罗兹英特利犬是世界上最古老最稀有的品种之一，同时也是美洲最古老的犬种。品种分为玩具型、迷你型和标准型，皮肤的颜色共有10种。美国养犬俱乐部称，

佐罗兹英特利犬在墨西哥被视为国宝级的宠物，因为它们性情温顺、方便驯养。

Mudi

马地犬

Another herding breed from Hungary, the Mudi is said to have evolved from a mix between Puli and German spitz breeds, with maybe a few other herding breeds thrown in for good measure. According to the Mudi Club of America, one breed fancier compared the dogs to a cross between a German shepherd and a miniature poodle both in looks and temperament.

马地犬也是一种来自匈牙利的畜群犬。据说，它们是由匈牙利长毛犬和德国波美拉尼亚丝毛狗交配演化而来，进化过程中可能与其他的畜群犬也有交配。美国马地犬俱乐部表示，某个品种的爱好者曾将马地犬和由德国牧羊犬和迷你泰迪犬杂交而来的犬种进行比较，观察它们的外形和性情。

The Mudi"s coat is distinctively curly and comes in a rainbow of colors, including the striking merle coat shown here. The breed is rare in the United States and is considered active, intelligent and immensely trainable.

马地犬拥有五颜六色的卷曲毛发。图片里就有一只黑白相间的马地犬。在美国，这是一个稀有的犬种，它们聪明、有活力、方便驯养。

Bedlington terrier

贝灵顿梗

When groomed in a certain way, this terrier looks decidedly like a little lamb. But don"t be fooled. The Bedlington can be sweet and quiet, but typically aggressive terrier instincts can kick in at any time with this inquisitive, affectionate breed, according to the Bedlington Terrier Club of America.

如果精心梳理贝灵顿梗的毛发，它们看上去就会像小绵羊一样。但是别被它们的外形欺骗了。据美国贝灵顿梗俱乐部所说，在它们安静、可爱、亲切的外表下，隐藏着随时可能爆发的攻击本能。

These dogs are known to be very trainable and versatile and are "frollicking, charming and full of fun," says the AKC. Just be prepared for second looks wherever you go. It"s the almond-shaped eyes, the little tassels on the ends of the ears, and the curved, lithe body that just looks ready to gallop off at full tilt, ready to take off a canine (or ovine?) adventure.

美国养犬俱乐部认为，这些小狗方便驯养、多才多艺、“活泼、充满趣味而且惹人喜爱”。如果你遛着贝灵顿梗走在大街上，回头率一定很高。它拥有杏仁般的大眼睛，耳朵下端长着流苏般的绒毛，身体柔软，腰部微微弯曲。它看上去随时准备着跳跃，准备开始一场狗狗（或者说是绵羊？）的冒险。

Chinese crested dog

中国冠毛犬

Best known for the distinctive hairless variety, the Chinese crested actually comes in a genetically recessive powderpuff version too, which has hair all over its body. The hairless, shown here, only has tufts of hair on its head, tail and feet.

中国冠毛犬，因其没有毛发而出名。不过，有一种冠毛犬的全身还是长有毛发的，这是隐性基因在背后作祟。图片上显示的冠毛犬只在头部、尾部和脚上有几撮毛。

Believed to have evolved from African hairless dogs, according to the AKC, the Chinese crested are considered very "cat-like" in personality. They enjoy sitting in high places and adjust easily to living in small places, even though they can be a very active breed.

美国养犬俱乐部表示，中国冠毛犬由非洲无毛犬演化而来，性格和猫非常相似。它们喜欢趴在高处，性格非常活泼，即使在狭小的空间也能自得其乐。

Many of the winners in the annual World"s Ugliest Dog Contest held as part of the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Petaluma, California, have been Chinese cresteds. Remember, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

每年在加利福尼亚州的佩特卢马都会举办一场世界最丑狗的比赛，中国冠毛犬经常脱颖而出，拔得头冠。别忘了，情人眼里出西施，狗狗在主人心里永远是最美的。

Catalburun

凯特布朗犬

The Catalburun is a Turkish pointer known for its distinct double nose. It was believed that this unusual nasal structure gave the breed an advantage in hunting because of an extra sensitivity to smells. But breeders have since realized that the divided nose is just a cosmetic feature and offers no real edge over a typical canine sniffer, says Craig Koshyk, author of "Pointing Dogs."

凯特布朗犬是一种土耳其猎犬，因其分裂的鼻子而出名。人们曾经认为，这种特殊的鼻子构造对气味会更加敏感，能为捕猎提供有效帮助。但是，《指标犬》的作者克莱格·柯士提到，饲养者发现凯特布朗犬的分裂鼻子仅仅起到装饰作用，和那些敏锐的嗅探犬相比，它们的嗅觉并没有明显的优势。

Because the characteristic can lead to a seriously cleft palate, some breeders are no longer finding the double nose a positive trait and have stopped breeding for the characteristic. The breed"s name in Turkish is derived from "catal" meaning fork and "burun" meaning nose.

由于这种鼻子的构造会导致严重的腭裂，饲养者不再认为分裂的鼻子是一种优点，所以在培育过程中不再注重鼻子的培养。在土耳其语中，凯特布朗犬的名字来源于“catal”（刀叉）和“burun”（鼻子）这两个词。
