Talking Dog Discovered in Oak Lawn

Miracle or freak of nature? Talking dog discovered at Oak Lawn Park District's Woofstock fest.

A talking dog was discovered Saturday at the Oak Lawn Park District’s annual Woofstock fest at Bailey’s Crossing dog park.

We ran into Heidi the Wonder Schnauzer, who was attending Woofstock with her peeps. Unlike Mr. Ed, the talking horse, whose linguistic skills were discovered to be a hoax perpetrated on the American public, Heidi is the real deal.

Heidi captivated us as well as the other dogs in attendance, telling jokes and tales of her life as a pirate.
