Moose Is Scotch Plains-Fanwood Pet Of The Week

SCOTCH PLAINS/FANWOOD, NJ — Meet Moose! He has been chosen as Scotch Plains-Fanwood Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"My name is Moose, but you can call me Moo. I’m only a puppy, but I have a very long body and a very long neck. I came from Tennessee to live with my mom and dad. Even though I was found in the woods, I really like living in a nice town like Scotch Plains.

I’m learning how to stop jumping, but sometimes my wiggle butt just can’t help it. My favorite things are eating peanut butter, looking out the window, and taking up the whole bed.

I recently got injured from having happy tail syndrome and my tail is currently wrapped in a bandage, but I’ll be better soon!"
