Take power from a low beam connection either at your added relay or at the light itself and use that to supply power to your foglight switch. This way you will only be able to turn on the fogs when the low beams are on. Fogs will stay off with headligts off. Note: holding the dimming stalk back will light both high and low beams (and fogs if switch is on). This is the only time that happens. You will have to release the stalk to get only high beams or low beams.
If you decide to do this, consider adding an in line fuse at the point of connection to protect your foglight switch wiring. (1 or 2 amps)
