Peanut Butter: The Scary Story Of How This Bergen County Dog Got His Name Peanut butter is one of the best condiments around, and this adoptable dog in Teterboro sure knows it.

The pup had to undergo surgery and spent a good while recovering, but is now healthy and ready for adoption. Full of life and adventure, he's looking for an active household that can provide him with plenty of stimulation and TLC. CLICK HERE TO APPLY FOR PEANUT BUTTER.

Three-year-old Justify's win made him the first horse without a race as a 2-year-old to win the an…
