Our Newest Lineup, Including Sweet Nutella!

A combination of all of the Dog Liberator's available dogs!

Nutella the Sweetheart

Nutella is a little Sheltie female, that for some reason, thinks she can growl and show her pearly whites when she is afraid. Clearly, she has not been socialized, and she is terrified! Paul Pipitone, with Dogs' Best Friend of Central Florida, will be evaluating her and giving me tips. Regardless, she will spend some relaxing down time here, and then she will be introduced to the pack at the Border Collie Boot Camp. Hopefully, she will make the choice to play and have fun, and shed her old ways. After a few days of not being harmed, the dogs usually figure out that when in Rome, do as the Romans do!

More info on Nutella coming soon!

Update 01/25/10: Nutella is not afraid anymore. I guess there's magic in our hot dogs! She has just had her first bath, and enjoys cuddeling in the towel! She is free in the house with the dogs, and fine with the family. She's also enjoying playing with all of the dog toys!

Update 02/03/10: Nutella is a love muffin! She is energetic and loves to play ball. She jumps so high, I could see her becoming a great fly-ball dog. Nutella is great with other dogs, would probably do well with cats, and is good with children, however, she will need a few minutes to get used to a new owner. While she's not trusting of strangers, she warms up quickly.

Special Thanks to Derm for being our photographer for the day!

Buffy & Jody, just perfect little dogs-Adopted

Update: I apologize for the mis-infor-mation below. These two cute little pups did not find their way to use because of a death in the family. Unfortunately, I confused the information with regard to Jaffe's family and this family. I'm sure it won't be the first time I mix things up!

These two are litter mates. Jody shown left, and Buffy on the right. Their owner died, and as hard as the family tried to keep them, but it couldn't happen when they were forced to move into apartments or condos. Seems to be happening to good families everywhere.

These two have no social issues, and they are a wonderful team. The paperwork says they are Pomeranian mixes. Huh? Where? I'll let Holly and Susan clear that up for us.


Buffy the female is about 15 pounds, and Jody the male might be 20 pounds. Both will be groomed soon, and once they have had some time to relax, we will temperament test them, like we always do.



Buffy & Jody's original names were Buster and Bailey. They have been renamed to identify that they are litter mates, and it would make us very happy if they could be adopted together. Also, there have been so many Buster and Baileys that have come into our rescue, renaming a dog simply helps us from mixing them up! Do you know how many Buddy's, Lady's, Busters & Bailey's we've had? You don't want to know! Apologies for the confusion.

Buffy and Jody will probably be renamed to Bentley and Bailey! They have been adopted by a wonderful family with 4 very active children! These two little dogs are going to have a blast.

Carly - Adopted

Foster Update: Carly is a sweet little thing. She is my shadow follwing me around the house. She walks pretty well on a leash and is doing well with house breaking. She enjoys lying on a dog bed with a bone taking in all the action around her. She is not sure what to think about cats - mine are bigger than her - but has decided to... ignore them for the most part. She has adjusted well to being part of a family with 3 kids - they don't seem to phase her...noise and all.


Carly is a wonderful little dog with a great per-sonality. Her foster, Susan, writes "Carly is ready for KISSES!!! 5 months old and 10 pounds. She sure is cute and sweet. What a lover...she thinks she belongs on the bed!!!
We have noticed that Carly's hind legs may be lacking muscle tone. A home-opathic consultant will be evaluating her shortly. Herbs and acupuncture have been a suggested course of treatment so far. Lucky for us, we have Deb Redmond who will serve as a consultant for anyone who adopts Carly, to ensure her road to recovery.



Carly has been adopted! What a photo eh?

Donnatella, a Little Dog with Big Style-Adopted

Donnatella is the perfect little dog. She enjoys children, playing with other little dogs, and is great with big dogs too. She has wonderful manners, and is fully housebroken. She is fully vetted, spayed and micro-chipped. More information regarding her temperamanet coming soon!


Adoption Update: Donatella's new family recognize her for the true glamour girl that she is and gifted her with a new Rhinestone Collar and Leash. Her black hair and Diamonds reminded me more of Elizabeth Taylor........such a beauty.

Betty Boop - Adopted!

Betty is a 6 month old puppy who was turned into the shelter by someone who found her with the broken leg which might have been an old break. Joe, the shelter manager took her straight to the local vet. Dr. Mobley, who splinted the leg at no charge. Betty is a very healthy little pup, and will be fully vetted, spayed and micro-chipped, waiting for a forever home. We don't know how long she wandered alone with a broken leg, but one thing is for sure, her spirit is not broken, and she's ready to please.

Betty's Foster Update: Betty Boop..what a pretty face.....her ears perk when she's listening....very alert dog.

Betty Boop loves to give kisses. She is friendly with our small pack of poodles and ignores the grumpy old Pomeranian. She is very happy, energetic and lovey, and surprisingly quiet for a little dog - I haven't heard a bark yet. She loves snuggling in her crate or on a pillow by my feet. She follows me everywhere...unless my son Chris is around....then she prefers him! Whoever is lucky to adopt Betty will have a great companion.

Betty is very strudy and curious. Her little cast doesn't slow her down. She dances on her back legs. Her tail hasn't stopped wagging since she arrived, we're still waiting! Betty Boop has star quality!!





Update! Good News! Betty Boop only has a broken little toe which will heal up all by itself in just a few weeks! YAHOO!

Update: Susan will provide more details, but Betty Boop, in short, chose her new owners all by herself! Here's the photo to prove it!
