Beer City Dog Biscuits

06/07/2026

🌟🌟 SPOTLIGHT SUNDAY 🌟🌟 Say hello to Jeffry!

Jeffry comes to Beer City Dog Biscuits on Tuesday afternoons with Imara House and is a wonderful part of our kitchen team. He does a great job filling our dog biscuit molds and helping us keep the biscuits coming! 🦴

Jeffry lives in Kent County and has an older sister who serves as his guardian. Outside of BCDB, he enjoys working on puzzles and building with K’NEX construction sets. He’s also a big movie fan. His favorite movie is Beetlejuice, and he's always happy to watch anything starring Michael Keaton.

Jeffry enjoys listening to country music, with Alan Jackson at the top of his playlist. Some of his go-to foods include pizza, BBQ ribs, and spaghetti 🤤

Fun fact: Jeffry is a muscle car enthusiast and knows quite a bit about them. His favorite? Chevys, of course!

We asked Jeffry which task he enjoys most at BCDB and he said filling molds. Lately he's also been learning how to fill sample bags, too 🙌 We love seeing him grow his skills and confidence in the kitchen! Just look at that picture of him proudly holding the sample bags he finished 💕

We’re so grateful to have you in the kitchen with us, Jeffry. Keep up the great work! 🌟🌟

🌟🌟 SPOTLIGHT SUNDAY 🌟🌟 We’d love for you to meet our friend Faith!

Faith spends her Tuesday afternoons at Beer City Dog Biscuits with her CLS person, Ella, and she has been doing a great job helping throughout the kitchen.

She has learned several different tasks at BCDB, including filling molds with dough, labeling bags, weighing biscuits, and packaging treats for pups across the country 🐶

Outside of BCDB, Faith enjoys hanging out with friends, attending sporting events, and cheering on Michigan basketball and football 🏀🏈 She also loves music, especially Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift, and Meghan Trainor.

When she’s relaxing at home, she likes watching Food Network, House Hunters, and Hannah Montana. Her favorite foods are tacos, chicken alfredo, and Yesterdog hot dogs 🤤

Fun fact: Faith played Unified basketball in high school!

When we asked Faith which task she likes best at BCDB, she said, “Packaging and weighing the biscuits because it’s fun and I made so many friends at that station.” Faith also shared that she has learned how to use a scale and even how the biscuits are made 🤫 Our secret recipe!

We’re so glad Faith is part of the BCDB kitchen and can’t wait for more Tuesdays together! 🌟🌟

This week we got to celebrate Mel’s birthday! 💕 She had been counting down the days for TWO weeks and even made gluten-free brownies to share with everyone (they were delicious 😋).

She told us she was wearing her black BCDB shirt to work for her birthday, so naturally, we all matched her.

What makes this extra special is that Mel was our very first employed Brew Baker, and this April marked her 4 year anniversary at BCDB!

Over the years, we’ve watched her grow so much in her role. She may come off quiet at first, but Mel is always observing, stepping in to help, multitasking, and taking initiative to get the job done. She has such a caring heart, a big smile, and is an incredible role model for other Brew Bakers.

Please help us in celebrating Mel!
