St. Patrick’s Day signals a little luck o’ the Irish…even for pets!

St. Patrick’s Day is a time to wish each other the “luck o’ the Irish.” Why not extend that to our pets? Lucky is among the top 20 most popular pet names. Here are five pets named Lucky who have truly earned their name.   

1. Lucky the Dog
A woman came home from the hospital to recover from cancer surgery. When she awoke from a nap, she felt a strange pressure on her chest and immediately worried something was wrong. Looking down, she discovered that her little dog Lucky had placed every one of his toys and most treasured possessions over her as she slept, thus covering her with love. This pooch is lucky to have a found a way to show how much he cares.

2. Lucky the Cat
A three-year-old gray and black striped cat fell out a window, and landed 26 stories below. Lucky was one very fortunate kitty to have survived the amazing drop with minor injuries—a broken toe and a broken lower jaw. Lucky’s owner urges everyone to be sure they use screens on their windows.

3. Lucky the Turtle
After a tragic run-in with a raccoon, a California family’s pet box turtle lost his legs. But when the pet’s owners noticed the turtle’s remarkable spirit to go on, they begged the veterinarian for help. Fortunately, Lucky the turtle got new legs fashioned out of tiny coasters. Lucky is now doing fine!

4. Lucky the Bouvier des Flandres
A Bouvier des Flandres is a Flemish hunting dog, and this Bouvier named Lucky had a pretty special address, as home to President Ronald Reagan. These dogs are sturdy, often black or gray, with a rough coat, beard and mustache! They are gentle, loyal, protective, and pretty lucky if appointed First Dog.

5. Lucky the Rabbit
Here, not just one, but all bunnies are Lucky. Many former pet rabbits end up returned or abandoned. The Lucky Bunny Rabbit Rescue, run by the San Diego House Rabbit Society, finds loving, indoor homes for rescued rabbits. No bunny could be luckier than that!
