Rascal is a very healthy 7.lb pure bred Chinese Crested who is a rescue descendent of Lady Pink & World renowned Chi Chi "The World's Ugliest Dog". Never shaven, he is naturally & completely hairless except for his Mohawk and a little hair on his tail and feet. He is complete with warts & freckles. Having a lack of teeth, he can't keep his tongue in his mouth & his face appears crooked at times. People are calling him a Space Alien, Einstein, Phyllis Diller, Bat Dog, or "Hairless Potter", but to us he is our loving little Family member.

Rascal was named official Fire Dog of Station #1 in Newark, Ca. Rascal received an Honorary Doctorate in Animal Magnetism from SSU. in California.
