Now, the show has announced that Amber and the Dancing Collies will return to the final after being chosen as the judges' wildcard.
The act, which sees Amber, 25, dance on stage with her dogs Nymeria and Ruby, has been eliminated in the live semi-final this week.
However, Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, David Walliams and Alesha Dixon have picked the act to return for the live final.
Amber is not set to perform alongside the ten other finalists in a bid to be crowned winner, and secure a spot at the Royal Variety show.

The judges were allowed to pick from the variety of acts who had placed third in their rounds of the semi-finals to return.
Amber and the Dancing Collies failed to make it through to the final after losing out to musical duo Flintz & T4ylor.
Only Amanda, 51, voted in favour of the cute canine act when it came to the judges to decide who went through to the final.
However, their pirate-themed routine must have wowed enough to stick in the minds of the judges as their wildcard choice.

The announcement comes ahead of the live finale of Britain's Got Talent on Sunday night on ITV and the ITV Hub.
Last month, Simon admitted he was beyond impressed with dog act Amber and the Collies, as he described it as the "best ever".
Amber and the two-year-old border collie put on a jaw dropping performance to 'Let's Twist Again'.
"That was the best dog act since Ashleigh and Pudsey," he declared.
Ashleigh Butler became an instant hit in 2012 with viewers alongside her adorable dog Pudsey before being crowned champion in Britain's Got Talent series six.
Viewers watching BGT at home loved Amber's act as much the audience but had one major complaint.
They slammed the judges for not giving the dog act the highly coveted golden buzzer.

"Disappointed Simon Cowell didn't give the dog act the golden buzzer. Best act so far!" commented one fan on Twitter.
A second added: "That’s the sort of act that should be getting the golden buzzer not professional singers. What a talented dog."
