I will never forget that day on 25th September 2009, he was in a tiny box so cute and small
 I couldn't believe my eyes, I was given the best present of all
 From that moment o we grew a closer bond day by day 
 There's nothing I would change about him, hes perfect in every way 
 He loves to run freely as he noses around
 He is very alert if he hears any kind of sound
 I've had him since I was 12 years old
 Now I'm 19 and I've shared great memories that I will always hold
 I couldn't have asked for a better friend who makes me smile hen I'm sad 
 To have him in my life has been the best gift I've ever had
 I love give him cuddles as he rests near my chin
 Growing up together has been an incredible journey to begin 
 He's my absolute world and everything about him I adore
 I couldn't imagine my life with him, each day I love him more and more.
