Today I get my in home EEG on . Can't leave the house for 4 days, not ready for it. But hopefully we can see if there is anything fully wrong with my brain, or if it is all my heart. Hopefully can cross it off in a couple days and just have my heart and spine issues 🙏 but anyways, I'll be in the house for way too long. I'll be working on a couple projects for a wild life rescue. Spam me with things to do, bake or to watch. For my sanity 😅

My MRI results came back Wednesday and talked with the doctor Thursday.... it's not what I wanted to hear, but I knew something was wrong. Another MRI has been ordered. I'm not sure what the next steps are for now, my follow up is February 10th to go over things in more detail and plan for the future. Please continue to send positive thoughts and prayers! I definitely need them.

We have heavily been talking about a upcharage on 250+ # pigs. Unfortunately there's a large amount of over weight pigs, and all that weight is very hard on us trimmers too. We haven't made it official yet, this would be something that would effect new clients as I know all our clients we know which ones are a little more and we only have around 15 that are VERY large. A healthy diet, weight and maintaining it is so important for the health and QUALITY of life for all pet piggies. Please remember, KuneKunes come in ALL sizes. Some are bred to get big for MEAT, some are bred smaller for pets. We have seen KuneKunes from 75 pounds to over 500+ # that we have trimmed. But this is for any breed. We will do our best to help you with a good diet to help lose or maintain a healthy weight. Your piggy will thank you in the long run!

Let’s talk healthy weight and body condition for pet Kune Kune pigs.

I trim a very small number of Kune Kunes, mostly because their adult size and weight can be unpredictable compared to other pet pig types. That said, limited numbers does not mean a lack of care or concern. I absolutely care about their well being, and I want owners to know what healthy actually looks like for this breed.

This photo is a great example of a healthy Kune Kune pig.

Take a look at the body lines.
The topline is smooth and level.
The belly is not dragging or hanging.
There are no heavy rolls or excessive padding.
The face is clean and well defined, not buried in fat.

Kune Kunes are often described as “round” pigs, but round does not mean obese. They should still have visible structure, a functional stride, and a body that can move comfortably without excess weight stressing joints, hooves, and organs.

Obesity is one of the biggest contributors to mobility issues, hoof problems, arthritis, and shortened quality of life in pet pigs of all breeds, including Kune Kunes. Just because a pig is friendly, eating well, and active does not mean their weight is appropriate.

If you keep Kune Kunes as pets, knowing what a healthy body condition looks like is part of responsible ownership. This pig is an excellent example of that balance.

Happy New Year!!
What a wonderful 2025 year we had. We traveled 16,582 MILES in 2025!! In 2024 in October, we were just reaching 6,000! To say we added 10,000 MORE MILES is just crazy! I can't thank you all enough for all the love and support for Dory's Mini Farm & Rescue , you truly are a blessing! Hoping to figure out my back and pain issues here soon! My MRI's on my back are on the 14th! I pray we can figure out what the issue is and I can get back to work and on the road for my farrier work full swing. Here's to 2026!! 🐐🐷🐐🐑🐄🦙🐈🐕🐇🦔🦜🦎🐢🦨

As the new year is coming up close, here is the new price list and travel fees. For those that may struggle and my regulars, please reach out and I can see what I can do. Routes that have more than 3 people will be discounted travel fee. I hate having to increase the travel fee but my car sure has took a beating this year and keeping up on everything is difficult when barley my gas gets paid. I need to think about the future and wear and tear on vehicles as we all know they are NOT CHEAP. I hope you all understand.

Health update ** I get my MRIs on my spine in January and a tilt table test to see if they can mimic how I'm having black outs. Still a lot of unknown and trying to make it by. I'm hoping we can figure out what is going on and I will be able to get back to work full time and travel for you guys. I truly appreciate you all being so understanding as I'm having some health issues and able to reschedule. I am hoping to add two new people that will learn and be able to trim for me. There's just so many unknown that I wish I knew and when I will stop being in so much pain. I truly appreciate you all, and hope you all have a Merry Christmas and New Year!

Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate!

Another year to be so thankful for, not only my family and friends. But for the rescue and everyone that supports me with all my trims! And all the opportunities I have been given this year with more traveling. You guys sure have kept me busy! I am still waiting to add up this years miles, but I think we might be a little over last years miles traveled!!
This year has added more rescues and adoptions, we have unfortunately lost a few surrenders, but that does happen. It hasn't been my busiest year with the rescue , but it sure kept me busy with what came in as most stayed a while. I can't wait to where next year brings us!!

With thousands of miles traveled, thousands of little nails to hooves trimmed, I can't thank you all enough for all the love and support with trusting me with your animals!!

Health update**
Unfortunately there's still a lot unknown going on with my health. I am waiting for a MRI on my neck and back, and now a EEG to look for seizure activity in my brain. It's a daily struggle with a lot of pain , hard to walk, hard to feed the animals but you just have to keep going. I am so thankful for my support system, without my boyfriend, my sisters, family and friends, I don't know how I'd be able to manage.

But for now, at 330am Sydney, my mom and I are off to Tennessee to go on Sydney's Birthday Adventure, which is a aquarium and a zoo and whatever else we can find down there!! Sydney is so excited. Last year we went to Chicago Shedd Aquarium and SHE LOVED it.

‼️‼️‼️2026 Updates ‼️‼️‼️
I am posting now to prepare everyone for the travel price increase for most areas. Our local 30-mile radius FREE trip fee will NOT change. I know I am sure to lose some clients over this very large increase, but my prices before were the absolute bare minimum I could make them and that's if that even fully made cost. Unfortunately now with my health issues this is setting me very far behind and I truly hate to put this on you guys, it is this, or it's I stop fully 😕💔

30-50 miles = $30
50-75 miles = $40
75-100 miles = $50
100-125 miles = $75
125-150 miles = $90
150-175 miles = $130
175-200 miles = $150
200-225 miles = $175
225 miles + = ask for a quote

I truly love and appreciate you all, unfortunately I will be needing a new vehicle here soon and I have been driving a LOT over the last few years as you all know. The last few trips my sister has been amazing and we have been using her truck. But as we know, trucks aren't fuel friendly, and my truck is NOT very fuel friendly.

I will still also be doing my best to split up gas fees to make them cheaper on everyone for larger routes. My trim fees for pigs may also increase $10 from $35 to $45 per PIG 🐖 but still in discussion⁉️ Would like to see what everyone thinks❓️ Between costs of my supplies, laundry, dremel bits, cleaning supplies and more the extra $10 would help out myself with the cost of all the extra that I have been spending. I truly feel bad I have to do this. I hope you all understand. Please let me know how you all feel about this. Is it fair⁉️ Will you look for a new farrier❓️ Do I need to stay the same⁉️ I don't want to lose any of you at all, it truly hurts to even have to think about having to increase my travel fees so much. My health just looks like it's going to be a very long road at the end of the day and I have to be sure I don't dig myself a deep hole and keep not only myself afloat, but the rescue also and keep everyone happy at the same time.

Please comment your input, it is VERY NEEDED AT THIS TIME!!
