Raleigh Is Cranford's Pet Of The Week

CRANFORD, NJ — Meet Raleigh! He has been chosen as Cranford Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"This is Raleigh. He is a mini golden doodle. He lives by Memorial Field and just turned 1 on Aug. 31. He’s an energetic little ball of hypoallergenic hair who loves to go for walks, eat our cat’s food, and tear up newspapers or anything he can get his paws on when you don’t give him all your love and attention 24/7.

He has nightmares every now and then and when he does he makes sure to jump on an empty part of your bed to stretch out and make sure he gives you no room. His favorite thing to do is walk all over you without caring where he steps just so he can get in your face and you absolutely have to start petting him.

Everyone loves him and should follow his instagram @Raleigh_thedoodle."
