This week’s name is:
Igloo
Igloo was the brave, loyal, and valiant little Fox Terrier who belonged to Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd.
Igloo accompanied Admiral Byrd on the famous expeditions to the North and South Poles, specially dressed for polar blizzards.
He had many experiences including being presented to the President, being showered with a ticker tape parade, and he appeared in countless books and news dispatches.
He was even the subject of a biography: Igloo by Jane Brevoort Walden (G. P. Putnam’s, 1931).
