Discovery Of Dogs In Paramus Van Fuels Support Of NJ Puppy Mill Ban The same day that 67 puppies were found crated inside a van parked behind a Paramus pet store, advocates on Monday added signatures to a petition supporting a proposed law that would ban the sale of puppy mill dogs in New Jersey. Change.org has gathered more than 88,000 signatures -- on its way to a goal of 150,000 -- since state Sen. Raymond Lesniak (D-Union County) introduced a bill last December that would prohibit the sale of dogs and cats unless the transaction is conducted in person at animal shelters, pounds, kennels and rescue organizations.

Teaneck PBA Raises $2,500 For River Edge Boy Battling Neuroblastoma TEANECK, N.J. — Convincing a room full of police officers to come to a Disney character meet-and-greet to benefit the Teaneck PBA was the hard part for Detective Ed Kazmierczak.

Sunday’s Teaneck PBA fundraiser at the Glenpointe Marriot raised more than $2,500 for “Baby Luke,” the son of Kazmierczak’s fellow Ridgefield Park High School graduate, Vanessa Forte Abbadessa. As of Monday evening, Kazmierczak had yet to count the funds that will go toward the Teaneck PBA. Whatever that final tally is, howev…
