Fedor Jeftichew (1868 - 1904) was a Russian known as 'Jo-Jo The Dog Faced Boy'. He had hypertrichosis, which caused long hair all over his body.  His father also had the condition and they were in the sideshow together.  After his father's death, he became employed by P.T. Barnum.  He customarily wore a Russian soldier's uniform and saber.  At times he acted quiet and dignified and others he barked and growled at the audience.  He died of pneumonia at age 35.
