An adorable dog with a wonky jaw line has gone viral on social media with people asking why he always looks so grumpy.

Chico has a “crooked” underbite that makes him look permanently furious with the world.

The Brussels Griffon's owner Belle Evans, 47, fell in love with 11-month old Chico the moment she saw him and finds his scowls hilarious.

Chico looks so surly that when Belle posts photos of him online – often dressed up in cute costumes – she gets comments from people asking if he's unhappy.

Belle, of Lynchburg, Virginia, US, said: "The first thing I noticed without a doubt was his crooked mouth. I could tell his jaw was somewhat off centre.

"I wasn't sure if that was something that would change when his puppy teeth fell out but I hoped it would not. Thankfully he never lost that crooked look.

"My favourite look is when he squints his eyes, along with his crooked mouth, makes me laugh every time.

"Honestly Chico always looks grumpy, irritated and just fed up with life but in reality he is the sweetest little guy around.

"Brussels Griffons are a fantastic breed that are extremely friendly and loving.

"People online immediately fell for Chico and his grumpy face.

"I do get comments sometimes saying 'I don't think he likes that' because of his facial expressions.

"But Chico has the same expression whether he is wearing a costume or eating a steak."

Chico lives with Belle and his furry 'sisters' Hazel, a 10-year-old pug mix, pug Rita, six, and three-year-old Ramona, a Boston terrier pug mix.

While he may be out-numbered by the ladies and the smallest of the pack, Chico never lets his stature get in the way of going "all in" when playing with his sisters and using them as chew toys.

And the little grump has even earned himself the nickname "the piggybacker" because he always sleeps on top of Hazel, Rita and Ramona.

Dog-mad Belle shares the pooches' adventures on her social media pages Hazelandthegang.

Belle said: "Chico has to be touching one of his sisters all the time. He really prefers to use them as pillows and his personal chew toys.
