Biography
We adopted Brewer from a shelter in Milwaukee in May of 2021 when he was almost a year old. He has been to a board and train program as well as worked with an in home trainer. He has great house manners and is crate trained.
We are looking to rehome him because he has become increasingly aggressive with our older dog . We are continuing to work with a trainer on managing this situation so we can keep Brewer long enough to find an ideal home for him, we do not want to have to drop him off anywhere it would absolutely break our hearts. We want him to find a home where he can be an only pet with someone who understands how to handle dogs who need a little extra work.
His aggression comes from primarily resource guarding. He also has a major fear of the vet that we are still working on through “happy visits” and he is scared of nail clipping and ear cleaning although I have worked with him enough that he lets me clip his dew claws at home. He has no bite history but has snapped at that air when pushed to far with vet visits/ ear cleaning. He does wear a muzzle with no issue!
After all of the difficult qualities about him, I have to add that everyone who meets him absolutely falls in love. He has the sweetest heart and just wants to be with people and lay his big head on your arm. I have no doubt that if he was the only dog in the household he would be lovely on a daily basis and just need a loving, patient hand to help him through his fears. His ideal new home would be an experienced dog owner willing to work with him and he needs to be the only dog in the home. We just want Brewer to be happy and safe!
