Brownie the War Dog: Veterans' Best Friend

Author Kelly Nelson presents the story of Brownie, a service dog from King who served in World War II and lived out his days after the war around the Wisconsin Veterans Home at King.
During World War II, families all over the country volunteered their pet dogs to serve in the Dogs for Defense Program. Nelson tells the true story of a family and their beloved dog, Brownie, who served alongside the troops and returned home to become a companion to wounded vets.
