Lance is a 5 year old Cardigan Welsh Corgi, who is a blue merle. Both of his eyes are blue, and his colors are fantastic. I just admire him for being such a wonderful companion to our whole family. He is there when I need him, he makes me feel better in so many ways. Lance was born on October 30th, 2005. Lance and I have had a very special bond from the moment I saw him. He was the only puppy at the breeders office that came over to me and just relaxed and let me pet him, which was nice because I thought he was the best looking dog there. At first, my parents wanted some other corgi that might of already had a home, but they haven't come and picked up the dog yet, so we would of had to wait 2 weeks to get a dog. So then we all finally decided on this special corgi. We brought him home on February 15th, 2006 when he was only 14 weeks old. On the day I we got home with him, I went into our pantry and just about 2 seconds later, Lance was whimpering and wondering where I was. So I came out, and Lance was wagging his tail and it was so cute. The other very special thing about him, is that his birthday is the day after mine, expect 10 years later. I love him very much, and I have no idea where I would be without him in my life. I have taught him many tricks, and even how to walk on a leash. I remember, I brought him outside so I could teach him and there was snow on the ground so it was a little harder. With some treats, I was able to get him to walk on a leash. It was so cute, and it just amazes me how one dog can change your life forever.

 I have taught him how to "sit pretty", although he formally knows it as get it when I put a treat or my hand in the air. Lance is a very protective little boy, and he has a bark that should match up with german shepherd, but his bark is matched up with a little corgi. He sometimes scares little kids when he barks at them, because he wants to play with them, but how is the little kid going to know? 

 He is just a lovable boy and I can't believe this year, he will be 6 years old!
