It was 25 stories high, between two skyscrapers, for 1,300 feet. It’s a brother and sister, and they both were safety harnesses, it was the sister’s first walk since her 2017, when she fell 40 feet and broke every bone in her face.<\/p>\n

They completed the walk successfully.<\/p>\n

\"\"The 31st annual World’s Ugliest Dog Contest<\/a> went down this weekend in northern California and the winner this year is a small mutt named Scamp the Tramp.<\/p>\n

His signature features are beady eyes and wild, disheveled, multicolored hair, some of which has matted into dreadlocks. He also has short, stubby legs and zero teeth.<\/p>\n

Scamp the Tramp’s owners will get a trophy, $1,500 in cash, and an appearance on the Today show. The contest will also make a $1,500 donation to an animal shelter in Scamp’s name.<\/p>\n

Watch out world, a new ugliest dog has been crowned.<\/p>\n
