Hello, I'm Jerry!
I am 9 or 10 years old, and I was neglected before I came to Midwest BREW. I lived outside, either on a chain or in a kennel, for my whole life, and I never knew what it was like to be part of someone’s family. I've learned how to be an inside dog, and my foster mom said I have done well. I haven’t had any accidents, except for one time while I was on medication, and she said that wasn’t my fault.
I'm a healthy beagle now. I was underweight and had heartworms, but my foster mom and the vets have all helped me get better. I’m around 35 pounds now, and the vet says that it’s a good weight for me. I did have some flaky, itchy skin for a while, but I get fish oil in my food now and my fur is so soft!
I LOVE to snuggle on the couch with my people, with the other dogs in the house, or even on the couch without anyone else.
I am a low- to medium-energy boy. Most of the time, I am content to nap, but I usually get some daily zoomies for a bit. The dogs at my foster house don’t like to play, but I keep trying to get them to play anyway. Sometimes they play and it’s fun. If they don’t play, I can entertain myself. I like to throw my toys and then chase after them. My foster family also plays fetch with me, and it’s a great time. I can run fast. I would love to find a home where I have another dog to play with!
I do have some serious kennel anxiety, and a little separation anxiety as well. I have chewed through a muzzle and a kennel, even with medications to help me. I will need a home where I can have some space to move around if I’m home alone – either a gate or a playpen should work. The Foster mom uses pet gates and those seem to work ok. I like to explore the house, so it’s important to keep things put away where I can’t get to them.
I am really good with older kids, but haven't been around little ones. My foster mom isn't sure about how I will do with cats either. I sleep really heavily, so I bark if I’m surprised when I wake up. I do ok in the car, and I’m getting better about it. I try to wander through the car to sniff everything, but my foster mom keeps me in a harness so I stay safe.
I like to say hello to people who walk past my yard outside, and I like to bark a little when I get excited – like right before I get my dinner. Foster mom tells me to be quiet, and I am good about stopping after that. I’m just so excited for everything!
I’m a gentle, sweet boy who just wants to find my furever home. If you want to know more about me, please talk to Midwest BREW!

More about this rescue

BREW Midwest is the midwest region of BREW Inc. (Beagle Rescue, Education and Welfare). We are a network of volunteers and foster homes across Western PA, OH, MI, IN and IL.

Our Mission:
*Rescue beagles in danger of euthanasia from shelters
*Help beagles that have been removed from neglectful or abusive situations
*Educate families about beagles and their special qualities
*Find kind, loving families for homeless or abandoned beagles.

BREW is dedicated to rescuing and re-homing beagles. The main focus is beagles in shelters that are faced with imminent extermination. BREW works with shelters and animal control facilities and adopt beagles to families throughout our region. In addition to our rescue efforts, BREW is dedicated to increasing public awareness of pet overpopulation and encouraging pet owners to spay and neuter their pets. Towards that end, no beagle over six months of age is adopted from BREW without being spayed or neutered. BREW also works to alert people about the disadvantages of purchasing pets from a "pet store."
