My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hope and Buck

The verdict is in - these two are amazing!

Hope is certainly the more shy out of the two, but that doesn't stop her from leaning in for soft scratches and gentle snuggles.

Buck (a terrier mix with a Boxer like smile) can't contain his excitement when he sees a human or another pup! He is such a good boy! He does the absolute cutest tippy tap dance while wagging his tail that honest to goodness melts our hearts every time we see it.

Here's what we've observed so far:

Hope is a sugar pie!
housebroken
crate trained
gentle on the leash
a perfect passenger
can be shy at first (but still leans in for love)
dog friendly
loves affection

Buck is a snugglebug!
housebroken
crate trained (but prefers to be next to you)
pulls slightly on the leash but is easily corrected
a perfect passenger
outgoing and curious when meeting new friends
dog friendly
loves affection

BOTH pups are incredibly sweet and grateful for every little thing they get (beds, treats, toys), but most of all, LOVE.

They are working on mastering basic commands and top-notch leash skills in their foster home. And while we'd love for them to find a home together, these two can be separated if the perfect homes come along.

More about this rescue

Hi, my name is Cecilia Nieves. I am a certified veterinary technician @ Tampa Bay Veterinary Emergency Services as well as a full time mother. For about a decade now, I have been well involved in the veterinary field and for more than half of those years been actively involved in rescue work as well. I have worked with all kinds of pets and wildlife to even working as a Zookeeper @ Busch Gardens-Tampa.

Our name, AnimalLuvr’s Dream Rescue, comes with a bit of history as well. My mother and I moved to Florida when I was 12yrs old. My wonderful friend, Jenna, helped me create my very first email address. Always knowing I wanted to be in the veterinary field, I searched for animal lover and it had already been taken. Trying to be creative, I spelled it AnimalLuvr and from then on this became my logo and nickname. Being that this is my dream of having a rescue it is pretty self-explanatory.

In 2009 I began working hands on with both domestic and wildlife rescues that arrived to our emergency service in very critical conditions and this quickly made me realize that not only are there a lot of animals out there that need our help but a lot of them are strays that no one claims, confiscated animals and those that the owner either cannot or will not give them the care they need. The Tampa bay and surrounding areas are very lucky to have a hospital like Tampa Bay Veterinary Emergency Services that opens its doors to those unclaimed animals and care for them when no one else will. I am more than honored to say that Dr. Katy Meyer is not only supportive of my mission and goals but will be assisting us as being one of our wonderful board members!

June 2014 – After a year and a half of lots of invested $, tons of paperwork, calling the IRS at least monthly to follow up and patiently waiting – WE HAVE OFFICIALLY RECEIVED OUR APPROVAL LETTER FOR OUR 501c3 TAX EXEMPTION!!
