A Very Good Girl

April 12, 2010 - August 31, 2025

Our sweet Amber crossed the rainbow bridge after fifteen and a half years of years of amazing memories, snuggles, zoomies, sunbathing, and unconditional love. Her family still misses her dearly, but we are so blessed to have such amazing memories with her that we will always treasure.

Below you will find a collection of photos from her life, from an itty bitty pink-nosed pup to a gracefully graying senior lady. It's hard to put into words how special, spunky, stubborn, and completely amazing she was, but the photos help.

For all of you who loved Amber over these years, thank you for how special you made her feel to us. She was truly one of a kind.

Love, Sean & Jill
