Nominate Your Pet For Clark-Garwood's Pet Of The Week

CLARK/GARWOOD, NJ — Meet Chewy! He has been chosen as Patch's Pet Of The Week. Nominate your pet and winners will get a digital gift card for a free pet wash from In-N-Out Dog Pet Services.

"Chewy came into our lives suddenly and unexpectedly through a random Facebook post from an anonymous person who wished the pet gone that day. Sensing some urgency, I've convinced my husband to drive an hour and a half (one way) to get the dog — kids did not need any convincing.

We fell in love with him right away — he was handsome, athletic, and had the most attentive gaze. True to his word, the former owner stayed with us only long enough to surrender the leash and wish us luck. That was it.

He immediately became our family member and we love him dearly. Somehow this makes me believe that fate does exist."
