Donate To Our Beagles In Need
Rescued beagles need your help! Midwest BREW operates solely on the generosity of people like you. Big or small, every donation helps in our ability to care for these animals. We are an all volunteer organization, and 100% of your donation goes to the care of our animals. Please help us provide medical care, spay/neutering, boarding, food, and transportation to these beagles that have been abused, lost, or surrendered until they find their new home. Your support enables us to create happy endings for beagles. Whether you are interested in making a general donation or sponsoring a particular beagle, your contribution will make a difference!
Midwest BREW is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Your gift is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

Sponsor a Beagle
Sponsoring one of our beagles is a great way to show your support for Midwest BREW. We rely on the donations of generous animal lovers like you to be able to rescue beagles. In many cases, these homeless dogs require extensive veterinary care—much more than the adoption donation covers. Each beagle that comes into Midwest BREW’s program is brought up to date on shots, heartworm tested, spayed or neutered, dewormed, and microchipped. In addition, we must supply flea/tick and heartworm preventatives, any continuing medication, and occasionally even food until that beagle is adopted. Sometimes they are kenneled for brief time until a foster home opens up. If the beagle needs treatment for heartworm, we provide that as well.

- Kristen Brophy: Sweet Arrow… get better cutie!
- Dolores Bender: To help with Arrows’ needs.
- Lolla Chimistris: For pup with bronchitis.
- Glenda Olszowy: We’d like to sponsor Arrow, in memory of our Midwest BREW beagle Opie who we adopted about 14 years ago and miss more than words can say.
Arrow
Arrow recently came into the program and was diagnosed with bronchitis with severe coughing. He is currently on steroids and antibiotics.
We appeal to your generosity to help us offset the cost of Arrow’s medical care. Every cent counts and we appreciate any assistance you can provide for sweet Arrow.
Update 12/12/25: Sweet Arrow is not coughing since starting steroids, with a follow-up with the vet today. Time will tell when Arrow tapers off the steroids. 🤞

Athena
Athena, about 2.5 years old came into the program pregnant. Believed to be her first pregnancy. Today (11/21/2025) she went into labor, after two puppies were still borne, she underwent an emergency c-section. Three more puppies were still borne and one survived with a 50/50 chance.
We appeal to your generosity to help us offset the cost of Athena’s medical care. Every cent counts and we appreciate any assistance you can provide for sweet Athena and her sole surviving pup.
Update 11/22/25: Athenda’s last puppy didn’t make it. It tried taking some formula, but it’s body temp was too low, even with a heating pad. Although we couldn’t save her pups, Athena will need medical care, so any donation you can spare is so very welcome.
Update 11/25/25: Athena saw the vet today. She tested positive for Lyme and Anaplasmosis. She also was found to be anemic and needs some dental work. Her bloodwork is a bit wonky, most likely due to the c-section, spay, and testing positive for the Tick Borne Diseases. Rest assured, Miss Athena is getting all the medical care she needs and deserves. Any donation will help her to a new and wonderful life.
Update 12/07/25: Athena has a very good appetite and is eating well. She is still very lethargic and sleeping a lot but has started getting a bit more energy and played with the resident beagle. Athena will begin receiving injections on 12/09/25.
