Brewster - Animal Abuse Hearing Dec 15, 2015 I can't say it
enough...
If you see something, say something...
*Research shows that many child and spouse
abusers start out by abusing animals.*

The initial court date for Bewster is December 15.
Please join us in wearing "Brewster Blue" that day to show your
support!

*Research shows that many child and spouse
abusers start out by abusing animals.*
How many Brewsters are there? Could
Esteves have had 3 yr old Brewster and not have mentioned him to
friends and family? Could neighbors have known about Brewster?
Could Brewster have been on Esteves's facebook page? All possible...
and then GONE...
We may never know what was in Esteves's evil
mind to try to erase Brewster from the face of the planet, but
that's what he tried to do. And I hope he goes to jail for it.
And if someone else knew about Esteves and what he was doing to
Brewster, and said nothing, that makes them complicit in this crime!
*Research shows that many child and spouse
abusers start out by abusing animals.*
Brewster made it, but another boxer found a few
days later in AZ did not. That boxer was alive and skin and
bones like Brewster.
*Research shows that many child and spouse
abusers start out by abusing animals.*
If you see something, say something...
PLEASE!!!!!!!

Brewster Nov 20 - free at last!I know you have all been looking forward to seeing Brewster again and we are thrilled that we can finally show you all the progress he has made since October 13. Compare this little jumping bean to the Brewster we saw in the early videos - just incredible that he has come so far already <3 Posted by Adopt a Boxer Rescue on Friday, November 20, 2015 |
11/20/15 What a few weeks and a bit of food can do! Brewster
is recovering from his abuser, and is living life as he should.
Thanks to all who have been following his story and asking for his
status and to help.
We are now able to post pictures and give some updates, but his
abuser and Brewster's case is still in process.
Thanks again for caring and helping. |
10/19/2015 - Update
Brewster is doing better and his abuser has
confessed. Let's hope justice is
delivered.
And now to his future...
So…you want to adopt Brewster. Here is what you need to know
before applying –It will be several weeks before Brewster
is well enough to be released to an adoptive home. During
that time, he will be fostered in close proximity to one of
our vets so he can continue to receive medical care.
Our adoption area covers a span roughly from CT south
through northern VA. You MUST live within our coverage area
to qualify to adopt. We will not ship a dog out of our area.
Brewster can only be adopted by one home. We anticipate
receiving many, many applications. Apply if, and only
if, you are willing to adopt a different dog from us
should you not be selected as Brewster’s new family. We
have over 50 other dogs who need homes just as badly as
Brewster.
To apply, click on the link above to Adoption/Foster.
Read through the information carefully. Within that
document, you will see a link to the actual application.
Our volunteers are just that – volunteers. We
anticipate getting dozens of applications for Brewster.
Please give us the time to work through them all. And
when we find the perfect match for him, please be happy
for him and then be ready to open your heart and home to
one of his brothers or sisters on our website.
Thanks for caring about all the boxers needing homes.
10/14/2015:
Brewster was found as a stray. He is
estimated to be about 3 years old, and is one of the worst cases of
an emaciated boxer we have ever seen.
Our volunteers were able to visit with Brewster today, and he was
waggin his little nub! He is holding his own, but not out of the
woods yet. Our vets and volunteers will do everything possible to
care for this great little boxer.
Words can't describe how angry this makes us. How did he
get this way? Was he a stray that no one saw until he got like
this... Or was he starved and then pushed out to die?
To donate towards his care, please click on the donate link at
the top of this page.
We will update you when we know more. |

Brewster's Story
11/27/15
Brewster has just finished his first month of rehab and evaluation. He
is doing very well and just arrived at his new foster home outside of the
city to give him more room to run and play! This boy has so much spunk
and life in him - he is a different dog than we picked up a month ago!
Brewster's court case is scheduled for December 15, and we are hoping for a
quick resolution so he can move on to the next chapter of his life!
11/12/15
We have
received many requests for an update on Brewster. Because he is key
evidence in a felony investigation, we are not allowed to speak to his
physical condition or post pictures, but we can definitely comment on his
winning personality and unbreakable spirit. He continues to be that
loveable and happy boy that we instantly fell in love with. Everyone
that has met Brewster has felt this instant connection with him as he looks
at you with those big, innocent eyes. We are not yet considering
adoptive homes for Brewster, as he will need to remain in foster care for
the duration of the court case. We are thankful to everyone involved
in his care, including those that have donated to support him.
10/20/15
An
arrest has been made in Brewster's case and his previous owner has been
charged with animal cruelty. We are very thankful to the NYPD for
jumping on this so quickly. Brewster is doing well and had a forensic
evaluation today to collect evidence for his case. He has gained 6 lbs
in the past week and continues to eat well and steal hearts wherever he
goes. Brewster was SO excited to meet AABR alum Ben last night.
I think Ben shared the secret of how good life is here at AABR. Thank
you for all your continued support of Brewster. As he is still part of
an open investigation to continue to build a case against his abuser, please
know that we do have to be limited on some of the information we share as to
not interfere with the police.
10/15/15
Brewster is still holding his own and is stronger today than he was
yesterday. He even went outside today! We are still watching his
labs closely as we continue his small, frequent feedings. His pressure
sores are a bit infected and he will require bandage changes. Brewster
loves the other dogs at the hospital!
10/14/15
Brewster made it through the night. He is showing interest in food
and has been started on a slow refeeding schedule of every two hours.
Brewster is on fluids and is also drinking on his own. He is on
antibiotics for some infected pressure sores. His bloodwork showed
anemia, which is not surprising. All of the staff at the vet hospital
are commenting about what a sweet boy Brewster is!
10/13/15 -
AABR received a frantic call from the NYC shelter director asking for
help for Brewster. He is 25.8 lbs and fighting for his life. We
are going to give him the best chance at that fight. Brewster was
found in a park and carried to safety by a Good Samaritan, who noted that
even in his terrible condition, Brewster was wagging his nub. Brewster
just arrived at the ER and his heart and lungs sound good. He is
getting fluids and lab work done this evening and our volunteers will visit
with him tomorrow. Please keep him in your thoughts and consider
donating for Brewster to help with his care! |

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please first read our Adoption Procedure,
by clicking on the link at the top of this page,
then fill out an
online application.
Boxers and Applicants
are not matched on a first come, first served basis.
Not all applications are approved. On average, it takes
between a week and 3 months to adopt a Rescue Boxer to an
approved applicant, depending
on your personal circumstances and flexibility.
Not every home is
the right match for a boxer, and matching Boxers suitable for placement
with younger children, other dogs, cats, and special
needs, yours and theirs, increases the application review
time and adoption time.
And yes, we
realize that the Boxer you may have your heart set on, may be adopted
before you're approved. Should your first choices all ready
found their forever home, we want you to advise
us at your home visit of other dogs you are interested... Or let
us suggest a few that we feel will match your home.
That is what we are good at. And be happy for the
ones that have been placed... and know that there are way too many
fantastic dogs waiting in their place.
Our non-profit organization is wholly comprised of hard-working volunteers whose only reward is seeing our wonderful
Boxers placed in loving, permanent homes and given another chance for a happy life. Our process may seem slow, but if you are patient, we will try to provide you with a devoted, loving companion - a
Boxer.
We hope you feel that
the right Boxer is worth waiting for.
