The Heroic Dog on the Titanic

Rigel was not the only dog on the Titanic. There were twelve other dogs as well. In the kennels next to Rigel were two Airedales owned by John Jacob Astor, a Chow Chow owned by Harry Anderson, and a champion French Bulldog with the impressive name "Gamin de Pycombe," owned by Robert Daniels. William Dulles brought a Fox Terrier, William Carter's family had two King Charles Spaniels and Ann Isham had the largest dog, a Great Dane. Several other dogs stayed in the staterooms with their owners. These included a Pekingese named Sun Yat Sen, owned by Henry Harper and his wife, Myra, the Pomeranians of Elizabeth Rothschild and Margaret Hays, and a small dog of unknown breed named Frou Frou that belonged to the newlyweds Helen and Dickonson Bishop (Click here...)
