Brett Camber is Joe and Charity Camber's ten-year-old son. Like Tad Trenton, Brett once suffered from nightmares and sleep walking. These habits return when Brett sees Cujo sick the morning he and his mother are to go visit his Aunt Holly. Brett is deeply concerned about his dog, the only creature in the world he truly cares about. Brett makes his mother call home often to find out if his father is caring for the sick dog, but they never get an answer.
