About Brew

Meet Brew, a vibrant and friendly Labrador Retriever mix just shy of 2 years old. Weighing in at 83 pounds and the perfect large-size companion, Brew is neutered, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations. This lovable boy has shown he gets along well with cats, dogs, and children, making him an ideal family pet. Currently, Brew faces some health challenges. He tested faintly positive for both Heartworm and Lyme Disease. However, he's started treatment with a Lyme vaccine and a month of Doxycycline, which will help address both issues.

Adoption will proceed under a medical foster-to-adopt contract to ensure he receives the vital treatment needed before transitioning to his forever home.
