i heard the above snippet of a conversation at work today and immediately thought of the guy in the pictures below.
his name was Fedor Jeftichew (Russian: Фёдор Евтищев) and he was made to perform in "carnivals" in the late 1800's under the name Jo-Jo The Dog Faced Boy (and later Jo-Jo The Dog Faced Man). it's a shame that he didn't survive until the year 2011 when people such as himself have apparently managed to organise clubs, where one presumes they lobby against being made to perform for "carnivals".
despite his untimely death in 1904 you can follow Fedor at twitter where i'm sure he'd be happy to respond to any queries you may have on dog people, Don Bradman or the escalating drug cartel crisis in Mexico.
