Howard Stern and his girlfriend Beth found an abandoned rabbit in Riverside Park, NYC. They had found the rabbit and the box it was abandoned in and realized that this was not a wild rabbit but someones pet that they had let go in the park. They did not want to leave the rabbit helpless in the park so they brought it to the Petland Discounts on W 72nd Street where the Assistant Manager Jose and Wayne, a full time employee took in the rabbit, washed her and took care of her. Dr. Jeff, from VetMyPet came to the store to check the rabbit to make sure she was okay.
Howard had named the rabbit Lucky which was certainly an appropriate name as she was very lucky that people like Howard Stern and Beth were thoughtful enough to save her.
Howard had talked about Lucky on his radio station K-Rock and about how great Wayne and Jose were at the W 72nd Street location. Amy, the Director of Public Relations for Petland Discounts spoke to Howard on air about making Lucky part of Petland's school program. Howard had thought it was a good idea but also wanted Lucky to go home with Wayne since he was so helpful and so great with Lucky. In the end, Wayne had become so attached to Lucky, he took her home. We are very happy that this story had such a happy ending. We want to thank Howard and Beth for being so kind and thoughtful and for saving Lucky the Rabbit.
