My Dog Brandy

by Jeffrey Levy

Every kid should have a dog to go through life. It made all the difference to me while growing up in the Boston area as an only-child. My dog was a Keeshond named Brandy. If you're not familiar with the breed all you need to know is that they are the encapsulation of the purest form of love. In this podcast I'm going to share the incredible stories of growing up with him along with some special guests. So grab a coffee, ice tea or a bowl of fresh water (if you're together with your dog) and get ready to listen to the secrets of life from Brandy.
