Urbandale Dog is Drake's Most Beautiful Bulldog 2012

Tyson -- an aptly named champ --  and the Urbandale bulldog owned by Tyler and Chelsea Motter was crowned Most Beautiful Bulldog in the Drake Relays' annual

canine beauty contest. You can see photos of Tyson in his crown on the Relays' Flicker page.

Tyson was crowned after competing against 49 other bulldogs, some of whom, along with their owners were dressed in various costumes, including "Fletcher", a bulldog dressed as a massive barbecue sandwich in honor of Drake area barbecue joint, Jethro's, according to the Associated Press. 

Tyson's coronation wasn't exactly a picture perfect moment. The pooch fell face-first of his throne -- about a three-foot drop.

But he got over it. 

"He's a lover. He loves everybody. He loves to play," Chelsea Motter told the AP. "He's happy all the time."
