Britain is a nation of dog lovers - we love our mutts no matter what they look like!

At Parrot Print one of our most popular products is large canvas prints of family pets - usually of the cute variety.

But what happens when a beloved dog isn't exactly blessed with good looks? We believe every pet, no matter how ugly, deserves to feel special. That's why we have launched a national contest to find the UK's ugliest dog.

We want to celebrate every dog - no matter what they look like.

There's something beautiful about every pooch - even if it might be difficult to spot at first. So if your dog has a face only a mother could love, we'd love to hear from you.

We will choose one entrant from a shortlist of 12 to receive a free grooming and photography session, transforming your ugly duckling into a beautiful swan.

Our 2023 winner went on to become a Hollywood film star

When we launched a fun contest in late 2022 to find Britain’s ugliest dog we could never have imagined that we would discover a star - but that’s exactly what happened when Peggy entered the competition.

She promoted our contest with appearances on BBC Breakfast, ITV’s This Morning, Channel 5 News, BBC Radio Five Live, BBC Look North and many other media platforms before being spotted by Ryan Reynolds and chosen to play Dogpool in this summer’s blockbuster movie.

To enter simply email us with a pic of your dog, and include some details such as its name, age, breed, and where you live. Don't forget to include your own name and contact details. The contest closes on 31 October and the shortlisted lucky dogs will be announced in November. Send us your entry now: uglydog@parrotprint.com

T&Cs: Entries are strictly limited to one entrant per pet. By entering you agree to your photo being used for marketing purposes. Winners will be notified by email.
