From a report out of the UK,  the little dog named  "Yoda",  who was 2011's  "World's Ugliest Dog",  recently passed away in her sleep.   This Chihuahua was once deemed so ugly that she was abandoned by her first owner,  but later adopted.   She then went on to win the  "World's Ugliest Dog"  contest and was awarded US $1,000 as a prize.

Actually,  in her owners heart,  Yoda was a good friend and companion.   Appearance does not matter.    Pet's are always the most beautiful in their owner's heart!
