Nico Is Clark's Pet Of The Week

CLARK, NJ — Meet Nico! He has been chosen as Clark-Garwood Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"Woof! My name is Nico and I live in Clark. I am a three-year-old Shih Tzu. My favorite things to do are play with my toys and go on walks. I'm also one of the most fashionable doggies in this town! I love all of the outfits my mommy picks for me and I’m always getting compliments on my style around the neighborhood.

I love playing with other dogs and making new friends. I hope my family gets me a brother for Christmas! I love my family more than anything!! I get super sad when they go to work but light up when I hear them walk up the porch. I wish I could spend every day snuggled up with my family on the couch!"

— Krystyna Jamroz, Clark
