Foo-Foo (Miss Piggy) performer Steve Whitmire
Foo-Foo
In the series, Miss Piggy owned a pet, a white toy poodle named Foo-Foo (performed by Steve Whitmire), who is one of the few characters that does not speak. Piggy is often seen as very tender towards her, although to the point of sickly saccharine baby talk. On The Muppet Show, Foo-Foo was portrayed as both a muppet and a real dog in different shots. Foo-Foo mostly appears as a sidekick to Miss Piggy in most films and specials.
