Camille Abbamonte is a self-professed animal lover and advocate. A couple of weeks ago she accidently stumbled across a beach dog park in Pensacola, so she stopped to take a look. “I was in awe of how well it went, there must have been 40-50 dogs there. Everyone was acting responsibly, the dogs were socializing, it was great.” She liked it so much that she returned with her three rescues. “Within 10 minutes, all three dogs were engaged and I made a new friend.
