Visit Brownie The Town Dog's Grave and Memorial, Daytona Beach, Florida

Brownie the Town Dog of Daytona Beach was a stray dog who lived in downtown Daytona Beach from 1939 until his death in 1954. His demeanor and sweet disposition took town merchants, residents, and tourists, so they contributed to his care. He lived in a custom dog house, had a bank account in the Florida Bank & Trust and dined on steak and ice cream. When Brownie died in 1954, more than 75 people attended his funeral, and the mayor of Daytona Beach gave the eulogy. Brownie was buried in Riverfront Park, under a granite slab with the epitaph, “The Town Dog. A good dog.”
