BRENDAN is a beautiful 18-month-old sweetheart of a boxer.  He has spent much of his life tethered to a banister for 10 hours a day.  His only play or exercise was on a contained deck where he was also sent to relieve himself.
 
When we brought Brendan to the vet she found him to be suffering from non-contagious demodectic mange and a secondary skin infection.  Brendan is also malnourished, weighing only 40 pounds at 18 months.  The vet has put Brendan on oral Ivermectin for his mange and antibiotics for his skin condition.  If all goes well, Brendan will be neutered in two weeks.
 
Currently, a local kennel has been generous enough to donate a space for Brendan but he needs much more.  A dedicated volunteer goes to the kennel daily to give Brendan his medication and spend some one-on-one time with him; however, Brendan desperately needs to be in a home setting where he can get more consistent attention.
 
In spite of his sad puppyhood, lack of attention, socialization and health woes, Brendan has maintained a love of people, a GREAT willingness to please, and a joyful spirit.  Brendan will do best in a home where someone will be there most of the time. He needs a loving and patient family to give him the attention and care he so desires. In return, you will be rewarded with the affections of a loyal and faithful dog.
