Misha Is Bridgewater's Pet Of The Week

BRIDGEWATER, NJ — Meet Misha! She has been chosen as Bridgewater Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"Meet Misha. She's our 3-year-old Lab/Rhodesian Mix. She lives in Bridgewater and can often be found walking the Middle Brook Trail with family members and cooling down for a swim in the Middle Brook or Raritan River. That's her in the Raritan last summer, over by Pluckemin and River Road.

Misha's favorite thing to do by far, is chasing tennis balls. She's very athletic, jumping and contorting her body to catch balls and will chase them into the river, if that's where it happens to go. There's no stopping once you start and she often brings the ball to us when she wants to play, which is almost all the time. In the attached pictures you can see her playful side and her sporting side. We adore her."
