The Paws, Claws and Beaks Club has named Sheryl Lee’s dogs, Cowboy and Lance, as its’ pets of the month.
Cowboy is a chihuahua/dachshund mix that possibly has a bit of pug in him since his tail curls up so much. He is eight years old this year and true to his watchful nature. He was adopted from the Seal Beach Animal Shelter.
Lance, an English Cocker Spaniel, is seven years old. His fur is so soft and squishy that you just want to hug him. Sheryl has cared for Lance since he was about five months old and he became her Emotional Support Animal when his former LW owner, Cynthia Coleman, passed in 2016. She says that dogs are great together and constantly remind Sheryl of the unconditional love and companionship that exists in her life.
When Sheryl brings out their suitcase so she can go to her daughter’s home in Alabama each year, Lance grabs onto her leg and both dogs get upset. Once they get settled at her sisters’ home, they are treated like kings during their visit.
