This is Suki one of Astro's morning walk mates and she and her sister Nova have VERY fine and silky beards and mustaches.
Their 'mum' M-L is a dedicated doggy person, Schnauzers in particular, and full of fascinating facts about many things canine.
Originally ratters, the hairy beards protected their skin from being bitten.
