HelmetHead, I knew that at SOME point Manilow had a beagel named Bagel, but I’m pretty sure that “Mandy” was originally inspired by a (previous?) dog. If that earlier dog’s name was Brandy rather than Mandy (the conflict was probably with “Brandy” by Looking Glass), that would accommodate both scenarios.
Edit: A quick Google search suggests that, while the song’s “It’s about a dog” inspiration has a long history, it may be apocryphal. It works, though…
