Hog Haven Farm

Hog Haven Farm Hog Haven Farm is a nonprofit pig rescue and sanctuary in Colorado.

Our mission is to provide a safe environment for potbellied pigs that are rescued from situations of abuse, neglect, or abandonment. HHF strives to promote compassion for all animals, and to allow these animals to live happy lives without fear and suffering. We currently offer therapy pet programs across the Denver metro area, and our list includes memory care facilities, nursing homes, assisted l

iving communities, libraries, and more! In the long term, Hog Haven Farm aims to:

• Promote potbellied pigs as the third recognized domesticated animal and pet by providing education and resources to the general public
• Provide a safe home for rescued livestock (including potbelly pigs) to call home; a place for rehabilitation of livestock animals; and a welcoming environment for the community to become better acquainted with animals associated with food
• Educate the community about potbelly pigs as creatures and pets
• Educate the community about farm animals through volunteer programs, organization visits to the farm (schools, etc.), and allow community to work directly with the animals to learn more about them
• Educate the community about sustainable food options; farm animals are more than dinner, and educational programs are paramount in creating change within the food industry
• Create outreach program for children with autism (research strongly suggests that animals increase positive social behaviors with children that have ASD)

We’ve had a few people reach out for a Morty update recently, so here’s a video of him enjoying a cookie this afternoon 🥰

Since we had a bit of a health scare with him last summer, Morty is doing so much better now and is thriving. He’s always been his happy, spinning little self—and now he’s a healthy weight again, too!

Morty makes the cutest face when he wants cookies, and we are always happy to oblige. He’s just the best 🫶🏻

We are on the home stretch for Colorado Gives Day—and still have a ways to go to reach our year-end goal! So far, more than 60 of our supporters have come together to raise $8,839.00 for the pigs. Don’t forget that we have a matching donor for all of the day’s donations, too!

Pictured is Frida, another Hog Haven Farm resident who receives extra support each month. Rescued in 2020, Frida had some serious behavioral concerns. After discussions with our veterinarian, Frida was loosely diagnosed as schizophrenic; we say loosely because there isn’t much research on mental health/pyschosis in pigs.

Frida now takes daily medication to help keep her attitude regulated, and it’s made a big difference for her behavior! She’s thriving with lots of pig friends, with Chopper and Truffle being her absolute besties. Upon arrival, we never imagined that Frida could safely live with other pigs—her medication has made that possible, and your support makes her ongoing treatment possible!

You are helping make a difference for the pigs at HHF, and boy are we all grateful! 🥰

We have raised 3️⃣9️⃣9️⃣4️⃣ so far for Colorado Gives Day—and every single dollar raised benefits the pigs directly!

Lola is one of the sanctuary residents currently receiving extra support; she takes medication for her arthritis, supplements for her liver, and has monthly visits from Dr. Ali for chiropractic, shockwave and acupuncture to manage her arthritis and improve her mobility.

Rescued in 2017, Lola is a Yorkshire; this breed of pig has been genetically modified over generations, and they often grow to sizes that their legs can’t easily support. She developed arthritis several years ago, but her supplements and specialty care have worked to keep her active and mobile as she’s aged (she is 9 years old now).

When you contribute to Hog Haven Farm, you directly help pigs like Lola receive vital care for the best quality of life!

And don’t forget—all donations received today will be matched, dollar for dollar. This is an incredible opportunity for the pigs!

Today is Colorado Gives Day, our biggest fundraising event of the year--and we're so excited to announce an anonymous matching donor for all donations made today! Turn your $5 into $10, your $100 into $200, all for the pigs!

2020 was a year of piglets at Hog Haven Farm; we rescued Primrose in May that year, the very first underaged, orphaned piglet we were able to successfully hand-raise. Shortly after, we rescued sisters Florence and Ruth, and then later in the year, Barbossa and Puddle.

Orphaned piglets are a challenge to raise; they are incredibly fragile, and cannot be bottle fed due to aspiration risks. They also don’t learn the essentials of being a pig from their own mom, and can have behavioral issues because of it. Luckily, the perfect step-mom came into our rescue: Burgie arrived summer of 2020, and very clearly asserted herself into the role of mama to these babies!

The piglets had 4 wonderful years being loved by Burgie as their mama, and this little family showed us how powerful maternal bonds can be for pigs. Burgie fiercely loved her babies, and they fiercely loved her in return. We sadly lost Burgie to congestive heart failure last year, but she left a lasting impression behind—to know Burgie was to know pure love, despite prior hardships and trauma in life.

When you make a contribution to Hog Haven Farm, your support directly impacts pigs like Burgie and her little family. You help keep them warm, keep them fed, and allow us to provide vital medications to those who need them.

Nine years ago today, this cute little baby found his way to Hog Haven Farm. Only 14 weeks old, Mac Attack escaped his fate of being raised for slaughter, and instead had the opportunity to live a wonderful life as someone, not something.

Over the last nine years, we’ve watched Mac Attack grow into a handsome big boy, with an equally large personality. He’s one of the most iconic pigs at our sanctuary!

When we rescue a pig, we make them a promise: they will only know kindness, compassion, a full belly, a warm bed, and the comfort of friends for their entire life.

Over the past year, we’ve maintained our promise responsibly, with so many of our residents becoming seniors—we have been closed to new intakes to focus on the best possible care for those already here.

You can help us keep our promise to the pigs! Tomorrow is Colorado Gives Day, our largest annual fundraising event. Donations raised during this event carry the sanctuary through the winter months, which are the most difficult and costly.

Schedule your contribution today to help us help the pigs 🫶🏻

Our Story

It all started with a little Pipsqueak...

In 2014, founders Erin and Andrew adopted a little potbellied pig from a Craigslist ad--and the rest, you can say, is history! This little pig changed their lives, and inspired them to start Hog Haven Farm. In five years, more than 275 pigs have been rescued, and more than 100 have found their forever families! Hog Haven Farm rescues all breeds of pig, though most are abandoned, abused or neglected potbellies, once purchased as pets. Pigs are intelligent, emotional, and highly personable beings; those who cannot be adopted as pets live out their natural lives at Hog Haven Farm!

Our mission is to provide a safe environment for potbellied pigs that are rescued from situations of abuse, neglect, or abandonment. HHF strives to promote compassion for all animals, and to allow these animals to live happy lives without fear and suffering. We currently offer therapy pet programs across the Denver metro area, and our list includes memory care facilities, nursing homes, assisted living communities, libraries, and more! In the long term, Hog Haven Farm aims to: • Promote potbellied pigs as the third recognized domesticated animal and pet by providing education and resources to the general public • Provide a safe home for rescued pigs to call home; a place for rehabilitation; and a welcoming environment for the community to become better acquainted with animals associated with food • Educate the community about potbelly pigs as creatures and pets • Educate the community about farm animals through volunteer programs, organization visits to the farm (schools, etc.), and allow community to work directly with the animals to learn more about them • Educate the community about sustainable food options; farm animals are more than dinner, and educational programs are paramount in creating change within the food industry • Create outreach program for children with autism (research strongly suggests that animals increase positive social behaviors with children that have ASD)
