Buddy the ‘beautiful bulldog’ excels at sleeping, snoring

Buddy is a sleeping beauty: Reddish brown, he’s usually asleep on his back, snoring loudly with his large tongue lolling out.
He was wide-awake Monday, though, when he was crowned winner of a “Beautiful Bulldog” contest.
“He doesn’t have a good stamina to him … he’s been laying around all winter,” said George DuBois from Ankeny, Iowa, who owns Buddy with his wife, Cindy. “Just in the last 10, 15 days we’ve done some walking. We’ve been getting in shape for this.”
The DuBois’ three-year-old dog was among 50 bulldogs from mostly Midwestern states who came to compete. The beauty contest honours Drake University’s mascot and one of the events leading up to the Drake Relays, one of the oldest and most prestigious track and field competitions in the U.S.
“I’m so excited. I didn’t think he had what it took to get it,” said Cindy DuBois. “His mom is back home and she won’t know what to think when he comes home with all this good stuff.”
Buddy competed unadorned, unlike many of his rivals. They dressed up as fairy princesses, rock stars, cheerleaders, bumblebees and even Snow White and Mr. T.
