"Brandy" by the OJays (1978)---is this song really about a dog?!

"Brandy"

written by Joseph B.Jefferson and Charles B.Simmons

Sittin' by the open fireplace
in my favorite dungarees
I played a few bars of a melody
and it sounded sweet to me
I thought I'd get up and take a look around
but my feet got in the way
stumbled to the floor,she was right in the door
I could see her face
But how could it be?
she ran away from me
My best friend's gone
I'm so all alone

(chorus)
I kinda miss you,Brandy
I'm so all alone,when are you comin' back home?
I really miss you,Brandy
missin' you everyday
are you comin' home to stay
cause I love you Brandy,yeah

Sippin' on a cherry soda pop
buildin' houses made of sand
like a little child with a fantasy
just a fraction of a man
I was in love when they put her down
on my doorstep in the rain
I could feel the love comin' to my heart
through my window pane
but how could I know,she would just up and go
my best friend's gone,I'm so all alone

(chorus)
I really miss you,Brandy
I'm so all alone,when are you comin' back home?
I really miss you,Brandy
missin' you everyday,are you comin' home to stay?
