Morris County Puppy Of The Week: Meet Champ

Morris County's Puppy Of The Week, Champ, might be 12-years-old but he' still a pup at heart.

LONG VALLEY, NJ—Lots of pet parents emailed to tell us what made their puppy the ultimate Good Boy or Girl. Although every dog is a great dog, here's this week's Morris County Puppy Of The Week:

Meet Champ! This is what makes Long Valley's Champ so special, according to his pet parent, Kris:

He is a Boxer rescue at the gentle age of 12! We could not let this wonderful senior go so we adopted him this past Fall. He is such a snuggler and doesn't have one mean bone in his body. He is very curious and loves to explore the outdoors! He loves to walk, eat snow and play with our other dogs. He will go out in any kind of weather, rain or snow! He is very afraid of the tile on the kitchen floor, however. He brings much happiness into our lives!
