Foggy, the Dog of the Day
Name: Foggy
Age: Four months old
Gender: Male Breed: Parti Schnauzer
Home: Chicago, Illinois, USA
 
   This is Fogherty Dumas, A.K.A. Foggy. He is a Parti-colored Schnauzer, living in the suburbs of Chicago. Pure of breed, he's just a different color than the A.K.C. is used to. He causes quite a stir where ever he goes. Of proud stock, Foggy holds his head high and prances about as though everyone in the room came just to see him. He came to our family after the death of another dear schnauzer and had big shoes to fill, but he's filling them in fine style.

    Being careful not to support puppy mill breeding, we had to travel seven hours to a reputable breeder to adopt our Foggy. We found him on the Internet and we were a bit nervous making all the transactions on line and not meeting him until the day we went to pick him up, but the whole experience couldn't have been better.

    Foggy is in puppy obedience classes and is as sharp as a tack. He's learned how to shortcut every behavior command to get right to the treat. What joy this little guy has brought into our lives. No one should ever be without a dog.
