About Looking For My Forever

Amber is searching for a home with a securely fenced yard—it's a must for her. At about 38 lbs and just over 2 years old, Amber sits right in the sweet spot of a medium-size dog. Her markings are striking, but it's her gentle, affectionate nature that stands out most. Social and eager to connect, she's quick to pick up new skills, fully house trained, and comfortable in a crate. Once Amber feels safe, she thrives on human companionship and bonds deeply with her people. Amber does best with another friendly dog in the home; she’s playful and would love a companion or regular trips to the dog park. After losing her previous home, she struggled in the shelter but has truly opened up in a supportive environment. Now, Amber is ready to dedicate herself to someone willing to offer her steady care and a loving routine. Note: No homes with young children—she needs adults or seniors who match her calmer energy. Adopters must have at least part-time residence in Florida; no out-of-state placements. Amber is fully vetted, spayed, and her adoption fee is $150. She’s an Aries, so expect a spirited, courageous side that shines once she’s settled. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
