Brandy was an old dog.When her owner died，the dog stayed near the house and waited for her owner to return.
Some of the neighbours left food out for Brandy.Though they thought the dog was friendly，they weren't much concerned with Brandy.
One day，Brandy walked into the neighbour's yard and began playing with 18-month-old Adam.The young mother didn't like the dirty dog at first.But seeing her son having fun playing with her，she decided to let Brandy stay.
One afternoon，the boy's mother left Adam in the yard to play while she answered the phone.When she returned，he was gone.The mother was scared and called the police.They looked for Adam for six hours，but were unsuccessful.
Then someone said he had heard barking coming from the woods.So they all rushed to the woods.Adam was asleep against a tree.Brandy was keeping Adam there while one of her own legs dangled（懸掛）over a deep hole.
Brandy had followed Adam when he walked away.Seeing him him in danger，she'd held him safely for all those hours.
Adam's mother was so grateful that Brandy spent the rest of her days with them.In Brandy's honor，Adam's mother founded Pets Alive，a pet rescue center in New York.She can't save every animal，but she knows that someone had put that old dog to sleep，she could have easily lost her only son.
