Brewster Carries on the Memory of Gibson

RIVERSIDE, CA. – Aug. 18, 2009 – It was announced on August 7th that Gibson “The Worlds Tallest Dog” passed away at seven (7) years old from a type of bone cancer called Osteosarcoma. Gibson had his front leg amputated in April, however the cancer spread to other parts of his body.

Brewster, Gibson’s nephew and prodigy, has been making public appearances with him in recent months. Brewster is a Harlequin Great Dane with a genuine love for life. He stands 38” tall at the withers and is larger than Gibson was at the same age. Next year, he is expected to earn the title of Worlds Tallest Dog, by Guinness World Record.

Gibson was scheduled to appear at the West Coast Pet Expo on November 14th and 15th to meet his fans and share his story of recovery. “It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to Gibson. He made huge strides in a short amount of time bringing global awareness to canine cancer. People as far away as China and the Netherlands were tracking Gibson’s recovery. We welcome Brewster at our event and look forward to watching him grow up,” said Marti Michalis, Vice President of Operations for West Coast Pet Expos.

Brewster will carry on the memory of Gibson by appearing at the West Coast Pet Expo and other events supporting Three Paws For The Cause. The goal is to create cancer awareness and to collect donations to support canine cancer research. Sandy Hall, Gibson’s owner, launched the initiative during Gibson’s battle with cancer. Brewster is the official ambassador for Three Paws For The Cause and will appear at events with Sandy Hall.

The West Coast Pet Expo will take place November 14th and 15th at the Fairplex in Pomona. There is an expected attendance of over 5,000 people per day. The Pet Expo includes demonstrations, educational seminars, animal shows, pet adoptions, entertainment, competitions, and fun for everyone.
