Introducing the Cincinnati Schnauzers.

Professional football started in the state of Ohio. Canton holds the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and the Akron Pros won the first ever NFL championship. Therefore, it's only fitting that Ohio has an NSFL franchise. Though the DSFL has two dog teams in the Birddogs and Coyotes, the NSFL does not have any dog mascots. The Shnauzers would add more animal variety to the NSFL which has two fish teams, a bird team, a snake team, a cat team, and an otter team.
Schnauzers are the perfect fit for the city of Cincinnati. Cincinnati is a German city through and through, and is known for its German culture, including beer, schnitzel, goetta, pretzels, and the largest Oktoberfest in the United States. Schnauzers are the best German dog breed (sorry dachshunds!) as they are intelligent, athletic, and tough. The AKC describes their temperament as "Fearless, Smart, Spirited;" three qualities that are important for football players. Their distinctive beards make them stand out among dog breeds as unique. This team would fit very well in today's NSFL. It's location in Cincinnati would make it a great candidate to join the NSFC, positioned relatively close to Chicago, Baltimore, and Philadelphia. Schnauzers' coloring would also works well with the current team colors in the NSFL. Schnauzers are often salt-and-pepper or black-and-silver. A gray primary uniform color would avoid redundancy with our teams as there is not yet a gray NSFL team. The designer of the team logo could pick other colors to use as secondary colors on the trim of the uniform; perhaps the blue and red featured on the city flag.
Other team names I considered:
Because of my LOTR fandom - Moria Balrogs, Rohan Riders, Gondor Citadel.
Because of my spicy food fandom - Buffalo Wings, Carolina Reapers, Trinidad Scorpions
