Some dogs are so ugly or strange looking that they’re cute. That’s definitely the case with these dog breeds!

Most people are familiar with the Chinese Crested, but another hairless breed is the Xoloitzcuintli. This breed is a lot more hairless than the Chinese Crested, and it has bat ears and a long neck.

Dreadlocked breeds are always a surprise to visitors and passersby. The Puli is one of the most popular, but it does demand regular grooming. Another matted breed is the Bergamasco. Instead of developing long dreadlocks, this breed develops mats in small patches.

The Affenpinscher is also a strange dog breed, but it is one of the cutest. Instead of looking like a small dog, it looks a bit like a monkey!
