19°F (-7°C)? Just a brisk morning for me! 🐾 While most are bundled up, I took my handler, @caesardepaco, out for a solid 5-mile walk to kickstart the day. A little cold doesn’t bother us-we thrive on routine, discipline, and fresh air.

No excuses, no shortcuts, just determination (even if I had to nudge him to get moving this morning!). Remember, loyalty and leadership come in all temperatures. Stay active, stay strong! 🇺🇸

As we celebrate this special season with our families, I want to take a moment to thank all my friends, the courageous military members, first responders, law enforcement personnel, and the extraordinary K-9s who work tirelessly to protect and serve us. Your bravery, dedication, and sacrifices are the backbone of our safety and freedom. We are forever grateful.

🐾 To the incredible K-9s, your loyalty and unmatched abilities remind us of the powerful bond between humans and animals. You are true heroes!

This Christmas, let’s also celebrate all animals who enrich our lives, whether through service, companionship, or simply bringing joy to our hearts.

And to our families-thank you for being our greatest support and the source of love and strength that keeps us moving forward.

Wishing you all peace, joy, and cherished moments this Christmas and throughout the New Year. Let’s carry gratitude for all who make our world brighter!

Life often presents us with days shrouded in fog, where the path ahead appears uncertain and clarity seems elusive. However, it is imperative to remember that this fog is merely transient. Through unwavering faith, determination, and patience, the light will inevitably pierce through, illuminating the way forward. To navigate through the fog, one must place trust in oneself, in those offering guidance, and in the fundamental truths that anchor us. By steadfastly holding onto these beliefs, even the thickest mist cannot obscure the strength of our convictions and sense of purpose. It is crucial to continue advancing, for the fog will eventually dissipate, unveiling a clearer and more gratifying view of the future. @k9_lives_matter @policedoglivesmatter @caesardepaco@officialbluelivesmatter

Your dedication, loyalty, and hard work make the world a safer place every day. Stay vigilant, stay safe, and take a moment to enjoy this special time of year with those you love. 🇺🇸 @trumpnationalbedminster @k9_lives_matter@policedoglivesmatter @njsomersetcountysheriffs@somersetcosheriff @officialbluelivesmatter @caesardepaco

There’s no better way to recharge after a morning of vigilance and loyalty than enjoying my favorite lunch: a perfectly cooked steak, paired with fluffy rice and tender carrots. The setting? None other than @trumpgolfbedminster🇺🇸, where excellence isn’t just a standard-it’s a way of life.

A meal fit for a dedicated K-9 like me. Every bite reminds me of the importance of staying strong and prepared to serve those who trust me most. Steak for strength, rice for energy, and carrots for sharp eyes-just what the doctor ordered (or maybe just the chef)!

Thank you, @trumpgolfbedminster, for your continuous hospitality towards me. Your kindness and attention make every visit exceptional and deeply appreciated. Until next time-stay classy! 🥩🐾

Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow K-9s and their amazing handlers! 🦴🦃 Today, let’s take a moment to reflect on the hard work, loyalty, and unbreakable bonds we share as a team. Whether we’re protecting our communities, assisting in search and rescue, or simply being there for each other, every K-9 and handler plays an invaluable role.

On this special day, I’m thankful for the dedication and courage that define our mission, the trust we build, and, of course, the endless supply of love and treats (steak is my personal favorite)! Wishing you all a safe, joyous, and treat-filled Thanksgiving.

To my handler, @caesardepaco, I’m especially grateful for your unwavering guidance, care, and belief in me. Together, we make an unstoppable team, and I’ll always have your back—just like you’ve always had mine. Here’s to more adventures, loyalty, and purpose.

With paws and gratitude,
@k9.lanzer 🐾

A post shared by K-9 Sgt. Lanzer (@k9.lanzer)

As a K-9 with no political affiliations, I felt it was meaningful to stand beside the portrait of our President-elect, Donald Trump @realdonaldtrump, at his country club in Bedminster, New Jersey. The portrait, based on a photograph taken during an unsettling moment-a reported attempt on his life in Pennsylvania-serves as a reminder of the seriousness of public service and the risks leaders face.

In expressing my respect, I firmly condemn any form of violence, threats, or harm aimed at those who dedicate themselves to public office, regardless of their political affiliation. Violence has no place in our society, and peaceful discourse should be the foundation of any democratic system.

As Mr. Donald Trump steps into his role, I extend my hopes for his health, safety, and the success of his presidency in upholding the values that make our nation strong. God bless America and may peace and unity guide our country forward.🇺🇸
