Lazarus Has a Little "Skippy" in His Step!

Skippy should definitely take note and contact this great-looking guy to be their new spokesperson.  What a life Lazarus has had - but he's happy now!  Jennifer Bridgman writes:


Dear Joey and Maggie:


Lazarus, a “tweenie” from Washington, D.C., with endless love for peanut butter, would like to know when the PR folks from Skippy will come calling with an endorsement contract.

My husband and I adopted Lazarus in November. He had been taken in by a rescue group after he was discovered in an abandoned home, where he’d been living alone for nearly a month with no food. He was covered in fleas, had scratched off much of his fur, and was down to skin and bones. Thanks to the good care of the rescue group, and then the skilled hands of our really amazing veterinary clinic (VCA Old Town), Lazarus is happy, healthy and feeling very handsome again! So handsome, in fact, that he is ready to sign on as Skippy’s next spokesmodel!

  2. I read about a pup abandened in a vacant house for a month and picked up by rescue with the same health problems from being alone for so long. Not sure if its the same pup but Lazarus sure is a cutie now if it was the pup. Hope he gets the contract with Zippy, he deserves it!!.

  10. As Lazarus' foster mom, I can tell you he was one of the best rescues we've done. Mostly because he was adopted by two wonderful people that saw him for what he was and could be. They didn't see him as a flea bitten, discarded, throw away.
