Tribute To a Dog Named Brandy

Brandy (2001? - 4/25/2013)
Our hearts are broken. We said good-bye to our sweet girl today.

Brandy came to us through Central California Labrador Retriever Rescue (CCLRR). We fell in love with her when we went to meet her at the home where she hung out with several other foster labs and the foster parents' dogs.

CCLRR rescued her from the Sacramento County pound who picked her up on the streets, wearing a choke chain with no tags and signs she had puppies recently. We adopted her July 25, 2004 and she was a love from the start. She returned a charming smile every time we showered her with pets and tummy rubs. Yes... she actually smiled.

The first book I wrote (not yet published) contains a section on Brandy. From my perspective, it gives a glimpse of how dogs, one of God's finest creations after man, can bring an awareness and understanding of God's love and care for us.

She was my running partner and ever-present furry companion. Brandy will be sorely missed.

  1. Gosh, Chris. I'm so sorry for your loss. Praying for comfort and that God would fill the void Brandy leaves behind. You're so right about dogs teaching us about God. They minister truth and love to us in so many ways!
