Mister and Lady Day: Billie Holiday and the Dog Who Loved Her

Billie Holiday-also known as Lady Day-had fame, style, a stellar voice, gardenias in her hair, and lots of dogs. She had a coat-pocket poodle, a beagle, Chihuahuas, a Great Dane, and more, but her favourite was a boxer named Mister. Mister was always there to bolster her courage, even at her legendary appearance at New York's Carnegie Hall.
