Rest In Peace, Brandy - September 2008
Brandy, a standard Schnauzer with a dark pepper coat, was one of the few who strutted around with his tail intact, thanks to Danish law. He was well traveled, living mainly in the beautiful environs of Vancouver and Denmark. He had a funny walk. A side to side wobble with his hind legs that suggested a dance from the bebop era. He tended to stare a little too long at other dogs, sometimes sparking a minor ruckus, other times opening up a friendly heart to heart, dog to dog. He never talked much, perhaps a soft bark here or there. Brandy lived a privileged life and was knowingly and unabashedly spoiled by his owners, as it should be, enjoying walks in verdant Stanley Park and dining on delectable Vancouver Chinese takeout. He will truly be missed, especially by Kim, Laura and Bjorn. Brandy was 13.
