November 5th, Beijing Time -- According to the report by the Daily Mail, its name is Hubble. However, you don't need a telescope to see it, because it's not pretty at all.
This eight-year-old beagle got injured once when it was young and lost part of its nose and mouth. Because of its ugly appearance, two weeks ago, this puppy was abandoned by its owner. It was found in the forest by the kind animal rescue staff who took it back to the rescue center. Now, they are looking for a new owner for the puppy, an owner who likes dogs with unique appearances.
The manager of Leeds Dog Trust, Amanda Suddes, said that this black mixed beagle looked even uglier when it was first brought back. Several teeth had been corroded and the gums were infected. Now, these problems have been treated with antibiotics. She said: "Hubble is the strangest-looking dog I've ever seen, but its personality is very good. Although it looks quite ugly, this appearance adds a cute factor to it. It is very loyal, it loves humans, so for those who don't care about its appearance, Hubble must be his or her best friend. It may sound embarrassing to say this, but it's normal. We think it will stay with us for a long time. People often choose those cute puppies when they come here. Other dogs - our 'permanent residents' - can stay here for several months. Hubble is indeed unusual, but it is a very lovely dog. If people abandon it because of its ugly appearance, it is shameful. It is a very good puppy. The injury to Hubble's mouth makes it look strange, but it doesn't hurt, and it is also very healthy. It is most suitable for adoption by families with only adults or older children, and no other pets, so it can become the focus of attention. It's sad that sometimes people abandon pets that look abnormal. There may be many reasons, unfortunately, looking strange is one of them. I think Hubble doesn't know about its special appearance. Since it came here, it has been very confident every day, and we like it very much. We can't bear to see it leave our center, but as long as our puppy finds a new home, we will sincerely be happy for it."
Because of the financial crisis, Leeds Dog Trust has been in a difficult situation recently. More and more people want to give up their pets, and fewer families are preparing to adopt pets. Suddes said: "Now, we have about 100 dogs, but if we have enough space, we would have hundreds of dogs. We also have a list full of names, all of whom want us to take away their dogs."
