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

CLARK, NJ — Meet Buddy and Ryder! They have 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.

"This is Buddy and Ryder. We adopted Buddy from Georgia and then a year and a half later we rescued Ryder from the same organization. (Happy Paws Rescue)

They are best of friends and "brothers". It was the best thing we ever did for Buddy as he now has a playmate. Our two small dogs were not into the rough housing but these two have a blast. When not cuddling they enjoy chasing the ball, fighting over sticks, car rides and walks in the woods. We love them and their other brother and sister, Riley and Dolly.
