Amber, the Perfect Beach Dog

Amber, a 2-year-old Golden Retriever-Pit Bull mix, is available for a Hermosa Beach family to adopt.

She gets along with other dogs with proper introductions, loves to chase the ball, and will even paw you when she wants attention in the most adorable way.

She sleeps on a doggie bed and is also crate trained. She is spayed and up-to-date on her shots.

This young girl is looking for a second chance at a wonderful life, as her first go-around with an alcoholic was an abusive one.

She is the perfect beach dog, so her ideal owner would be someone who's very active, such as a runner or a hiker; however, her new owner shouldn't have any cats.
