It was the first time that a dog was cast to perform in a live show, and Sandy became known as "the longest running dog on Broadway," never missing a performance in over seven years. Bill and Sandy began a life and career together. It was an adventure that lasted until Sandy's passing sixteen years later.

In his memory, Bill and his wife, Dorothy, established the Sandy Fund of The Humane Society of New York. The Fund helps the Society underwrite lifesaving care for the needs of homeless dogs and cats.
