About Amber

Amber is a petite, 4-year-old female Pomeranian weighing in at just over 6 lbs. All she wants is a warm lap to curl up in. At her intake, Amber was diagnosed with grade 3 luxating patellas, though she’s still moving well and doesn’t have any lameness issues at the moment. She also came to the rescue with a heart murmur, but after specialized surgery, she’s now murmur free and thriving. In her foster home, Amber embraces her inner princess—she enjoys being carried up and down stairs and tends to be a picky eater. She gets along well with other dogs but would be just as happy getting all your attention as your only pet. Amber is working hard on her potty and crate training and has made noticeable progress.
