Meet Flip Flop
Status: Living at our private kennel
Estimated Age: Born 5/10/2023
Estimated Weight: 50+ Pounds (estimated adult weight)
UPDATE - 5 NOVEMBER 2023: Our Summer Puppies are turning 6 months old in a few days, and we have only adopted two of the seven. These foxhound mixes are absolutely adorable - big, but super sweet, playful, and social. We would love to see them get into foster or permanent homes soon so they don't grow up in our kennels.
FROM PREVIOUS SUMMER PUPPY POST (when the "kids" were all posted together):
UPDATE - 12 AUGUST 2023: We finally had our first Summer Puppy adopted! Sunshine went off to her new home today. That leaves 3 females and 3 males left to go. The puppies are so cute and growing up quickly (they are now 3 months old), so we hope to have more adopters or foster homes for them soon!
UPDATE - 29 JULY 2023: The puppies have now had their second puppy shots and are looking for foster or permanent homes. So far, no one has been interested in these gorgeous puppies, and we don't want them growing up at the kennels. They will grow to be bigger than our average beagles, but foxhounds are beautiful, sweet dogs who will bring tons of joy to adopters looking for their next family pet!
UPDATE - 19 JULY 2023: The puppies are growing quickly and will receive their second set of puppy shots on July 26th. They will then be ready for adoption!
NEW - 29 JUNE 2023: Meet the Summer Puppies! These youngins were born at the Cumberland Animal Shelter in Virginia on May 10th, 2023, and came to BREW a day later. They and their mom (Mata) were desperate for a rescue to take them since there was no room at the shelter or any other rescue. Shelters are full and, like many pregnant mommas ending up at shelters, Momma Foxhound was on the schedule to be euthanized. Fortunately, BREW stepped up and took mom and the 7 hound puppies - 4 girls and 3 boys. They are not beagles, but they fit in well with the beagles at our kennels since they are all hounds! We did a DNA test on one of the puppies, and here are the results: 64.2% American Foxhound; 29.4% Treeing Walker Coonhound; and 6.4% Pointer. Like their mom, these puppies will grow to an estimated weight of 45-50 pounds. We like to call them "tall beagles." Don't let their size dissuade you from considering adopting one of these gorgeous puppies!
The Summer Puppies will be ready for adoption after they receive their second set of puppy shots at about 10 weeks (mid-July). If you are interested in adopting one of our Summer Puppies, please fill out an application.
Questions?
Q: Can you tell me more about a specific dog? Is s/he good with kids / housetrained / good with cats/ etc?
A: What we know is in the write up. Our knowledge about any dog that is not in a foster homes is limited. Once approved, our adoption coordinators will work with you to match you with the right dog.
Q: Can I meet a specific dog?
A: We’re sorry, but you must be an approved adopter to meet our dogs. Pre-pandemic, dogs could be met at adoption days, but you still had to be approved to adopt from an adoption day.
Q: How can I adopt a specific dog?
A: You must submit an adoption application and be approved to adopt. You can do that under Adopt – you can also learn about the adoption process there.. It will take about two weeks for an adoption coordinator to get in touch with you. Please keep in mind that dogs that are available now may be adopted in the meantime. But we are always getting new dogs. You can see them on our website.
Q: Can I add another dog to the list on my application?
A: We don’t hold you to the dogs you listed on your application. It gives us an idea of what you are looking for. Plus it will let us know if someone is interested in one of our special needs / hard to place dogs.
Q: I indicated that I was interested in a specific dog on my application, but I see that s/he has been adopted. What happened?
A: We do not hold dogs. Applicants in the queue before you are being approved and may adopt the dog you are interested in before you are approved. But we are always getting new dogs in and your adoption coordinator will help you find the perfect match.
