Is your pet a Hambone?
Lulu, the adorable English bulldog who gobbled up 15 baby pacifiers, was featured on the Rachael Ray Show on Dec. 14 as the inaugural winner of the VPI Hambone Award!
From Sept. 1 through Sept. 14, more than 3,400 people voted here for the pet insurance claim they found most unusual. At the close of voting, Lulu was the clear winner with nearly three times more votes than the first runner up. As the winner, Lulu, owned by Jennifer and David Zwart of Warson Woods, Mo., received a bronze trophy in the shape of a ham, a gift basket and the appearance on the nationally-syndicated Rachael Ray Show.
