Kyra Is Hillsborough's Pet Of The Week

HILLSBOROUGH, NJ — Meet Kyra! She has been chosen as Hillsborough Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"Hi! My name is Kyra and I'm 11 years old. My mommy rescued me when I was 5 months old. Her son, 7 at the time, named me before he met me. My mommy taught me to walk on stairs, and I finally got to run for the first time!"
