Nunzio - Cardigan Welsh female
corgi seen on the situation comedy DHARMA & GREG/ABC/1997-2003.
Nunzio and his canine companion Stinky (a Briard mix mutt) were the
pets of Dharma Finkelstein (Jenna Elfman), a free-spirited dog
trainer/yoga teacher married to a preppy lawyer, Greg Montgomery
(Thomas Gibson).
Amazingly, Nunzio is Stinky's dog which he received from Dharma as a
bar mitzvah present. Although Stinky is the bigger of the two,
Nunzio is the duo's obvious leader.
Once, while Dharma and Greg spent a weekend at the home of Dharma's
dad (Larry), Nunzio and Stinky accidentally dug up a human skeleton
buried in Larry's garden. It turned out to be one of The
Finkelstein's old friends.
Provided by Boone's Animals of Hollywood, the dog's featured on the
show were trained by April Melcher, Tracy Kelly and Susan Benedon.
Originally, Bub the dog played Nunzio (replaced by Twiggy during the
2000-2001 season).
Twiggy was born December 11, 1967 in Farmersville, Texas. She came
to Los Angeles at the age of 9 months. See also
