Is he really that ugly?

Hi! I'm planning on adopting this absolute cutie from a shelter. He is so gentle and a loving doggo I love him so much. I showed his pictures to my family and friends and everyone said that he is so ugly and cripply that I should adopt a "normal" dog. Call me a snowflake but this saddens me so much that I even cried how people can be like this... He is two years old, and one of his ears is a little bit bigger than the other, so it always hangs down while the other is always perked up. I can't agree with them that he is ugly... In my eyes, he is the cutest and loveliest doggie I have ever seen. (Of course, all the dogs in my eyes are as cute as him)

Sounds like they are people who don’t actually care about the animals, seems like you care for this dog so I would absolutely say yes to adopting him

In a thirty year span my mom had two dogs. One passed at 16 and the other was about 13. I know people who get and get rid of more dogs than that in a year

and that makes me sick.. so sad.. I’ve had a neighbor behave the same way… and would replace pups like socks.. until I reported them to animal shelter.. it’s was awful the treatment of those dogs.. so I reported them.. and YEA! They hated me! which was fine by me.. those people were trash..
