White Fang's Biography...
Recently, Doctor Greg Hormone invited an old but famous Detroit area icon to co-star with him and Sir Martin in the last episode of The Turku Project. White Fang!
While White Fang's performance was stellar, and magnificient...there were some troubling episodes during the making of this latest film. White Fang was eventually dismissed from the cast due to conflicts with the production staff, but he did, nonetheless, help to produce an excellent final episode of the Turku Project!
Here, is White Fang's story....
White Fang was born into a litter of pups from a mother who was (as legend has it) part American Timberwolf and part German Shepherd. This was in itself, a bad start genetically, given the temperment of Timberwolves. As is often goes with dogs, no-one really knows the exact lineage of the dog's father.
What we do know, is that White Fang was not only the runt of the litter, but that he was born deformed! He was only a paw! But a beautiful paw he was!
He had a brain and voice chords and all of the essential organs to function as an otherwise normal dog except for the rest of his body...For many years the Soupy Sales team kept this a secret while portraying White Fang as if he was just "off camera" when in fact...that was all there was of him!
This deformity contributed to White Fang's anger and frustration in his earlier years when he was rejected from military service, and later his application to the police academy was also rejected for obvious reasons.
In desparation, in 1950 White Fang, now 18 years old in dog years, applied to the Leader Dogs for the Blind. As usual, he was rejected.
While he did learn to "sign" it was little help to him, and his deficiency in being able to speak in an intelligible human language cost him the job. White Fang was heartbroken! He began to drink.
By 1952, White Fang had been arrested for at least 50 misdemeanors and a series of felonies including biting Federal Officials (U.S. Postal Inspectors)and he eventually was sentenced to do some hard time in New York City's Brooklyn Dogpound...one of the toughest facilities in the country, for canines!
While in detention, White Fang met up with Pookie, a misplaced dwarf lion who also suffered from depression and social dysfunctional disorders. Pookie was incarcerated for the illegal abuse of minor kittens who were part of a feline prostitution ring headed by himself as their pimp.
By 1955, White Fang and Pookie were both released to society again and looking to restore their lives and try to find work.
A miracle occurred in their lives! The first national Soupy Sales Show was a live fifteen minute summer replacement (for ABC's 'Kukla, Fran and Ollie') that first aired on Monday, July 4, 1955, produced from the studios of WXYZ.
Clyde Adler adopted White Fang and Pookie and brought them to the show.
Years of success on the Soupy Sales Show brought some joy to the lives of White Fang and Pookie as well as Black Tooth (another mutant dog) and Hippie The Hippo (another dwarf Hippopotamus) but in the end the show was cancelled and White Fang found himself unemployed and destitute again....
Intermittent episodes allowed White Fang and Pookie to work with Soupy again on and off, but by 1970, White Fang was in trouble with the law again and dealing with a heavy addiction to catnip as well as an increasing inability to work with anyone.
In 1970 White Fang was invited to go on tour with Alice Cooper but after a few shows, White Fang lost it and mauled Alice Cooper's face, forcing him to wear his theatrical makeup on a permanent basis from then on. He was immediately fired and went back on Pet Welfare until 2006.
White Mud did some extensive research and found White Fang living in a halfway house in Ann Arbor Michigan in 2005. We contacted him to see if he was interested in working again under the camera.
After several months of coaxing, White Fang decided that he was ready to revisit the camera life of video under White Mud's direction.
He was delighted to join the team of White Mud and made a major contribution to our film efforts at Vidiot TV.
While things went a bit amiss, during our first filming effort, White Mud feels that we can work with White Fang again, and we have even had negotiations with Pookie as well to see if they may both re-appear with us in a future episode of White Mud's Vidiot TV.

This is a great post Doc. Thanks for a detailed bio on White Fang.
How come, in that one picture with Soupy, that guy on the left has his arm up White Fang's asshole (you said he had all the usual organs, so I assume he's got a bung hole..)? Does that mean the White Fang is gay?
BTW, Happy Birthday to you... Happy Birthday to you...
Happy Birthday Doctor Hormone!
Happy Birthday to you......
(verse 2)
Happy Birthday to you... You live in a Zoo..
You look like a monkey and smell like one too!
Sir Martin of White Mud
I want Black Tooth back too!
Your,
Chief
This is monumental stuff, with the accent on mental! White Fang, Pookie and Black Tooth all in the same blog? Nostra Dom Polski told me I would have a dream and in it, those three would come to me and speak in tongues. They did and when I awoke, I wasn't tired anymore...isn't that amazing? This is great stuff, Doc, and I think you should be eligible for sainthood with your part in the return of these television giants. Got it? GET IT!!!
Has the good Doctor met with FOUL PLAY once again? It's been a while since we heard from him. I think we should look to the obvious first...didn't White Fang spend some time in prison? We need Detective Cody of The Miami Detective Bureau to uncover this malady! Got it? GET IT!!!
Hey Mikey Moe...I think that White Fang is actually innocent in the Doc Hormone disappearance.
I believe the Good Doctor has been abducted again! There have been unconfirmed sightings of him in Roswell, New Mexico.
Fadda Ken is on the case with the help of Nostra Dom Polski. Hopefully we will know something soon!
Sir Martin of White Mud
BREAKING NEWS! Doctor Hormone has been located and is in Albequerque, New Mexico where he indicated to me via voicemail that he purchased a new home. However, I hope that he's not planning on opening a halfway house for illegal aliens, since he is very close to Area 15 now compared to Miami. Nostra Dom Polski predicted this in one of his latest visions: "...the powers of the earth shall move one of the Taurean Trifecta very far away as a self-defense mechanism to prevent a premature apocalypse, while two shall remain significantly close, but with a very distinctive border dividing them!" That Nostra Dom Polski has some vision. Anyway, Doc is well and will probably catch up with all of this after the fact when he returns to Little Havana to finalize the move. Whew...at least he wasn't abducted...or was he? Got it? GET IT!!!
That's what you think, Bozo! We DID capture him and as admiral of the fleet, it is I, ET (the Extra Testicle) and we shall probe him and take samples for our cloning experiments. However, he is a cranky little shithead, so let us know where we can drop his obnoxious little ass off when we're done with him, because he is getting on the panoxial nerves of all onboard. Also, don't look for pie plates in the skies, ok? That is so 1950. We have newer models with sleeker features and colors.
