The 'World's Ugliest Dog' has died at age 17 following a career in show business. Miss Ellie, a small, bug-eyed Chinese Crested Hairless dog whose pimples and lolling tongue helped her win Animal Planet's World's Ugliest Dog contest in 2009, has died. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2010/jun/uglyellie.jpg" border="5" /> Ellie starred in shows at the Comedy Barn in Pigeon Forge. She also appeared on US TV's Animal Planet cable show Dogs 101 and was on billboards and in a commercial. Pigeon Forge Mayor Keith Whaley proclaimed November 12 as 'Miss Ellie Day' for her owner's efforts to raise money for the local humane society. Over the years, Ellie helped raise more than $100,000 for the Sevier County Humane Society. She will be cremated soon.
