Holiday outreach groups like the Salvation Army are in their final stretch of collecting money this season, which is why one Kentucky woman has gotten creative to help boost donations.

Judy trained her Dalmation Brandy to ring the bell that goes with the traditional red kettle.

She says when she brings her dog along to her spot at the local grocery store, donations nearly double.

She hopes to be doing this for many years to come since Brandy is just two years old.
