A little brown dog my mom sewed — and the movement it started
We get people off screens and back into real life —
one printed memory, one phone
call, one small good deed at a time.
When I was little, my mom made me a small brown corduroy dog and told me it was just like the one she dragged everywhere as a girl — the one her own mom had sewn for her.
Three generations in one little corduroy dog.
That wasn’t a toy. That was love handed down, story by story.
That’s the feeling we’re bringing back every single day.
Browndog does three dead-simple things

A fresh plan with a gentle joke and a real-life nudge, read aloud with one tap (just listen!).
Good Deeds
Sort by how much energy you have today — 30 seconds or projects that take all afternoon.
Memory Page
One printable page so stories leave the phone and live on a fridge or in a mailbox to make someone smile.
Print it.
•Check one box.
•Call. Mail. Show up.
Seniors, veterans, anyone who’s tired of scrolling — this is for you.
Grandkids — this is how you get new stories from Grandma.
Right now, and for every senior, veteran, and family who just wants daily joy — everything on Browndog is completely free, every single day.
No credit cards, no catch, no ads.
(We have grandparents too — we’ll never charge the people who need this most.)
Down the road we may offer paid tools for organizations and families who want extra features, but the heart of Browndog will always stay free for anyone who just wants to share a story and a smile.
