In corner B, our smallest contender, Mandy. Don't let her small stature fool you, she's a firework and one of the most opinionated pigs we've had. She attempts to mother hen the older pigs, who pay her no attention.

In corner A, we have Dolly. Dolly is about a year old, skittish when being picked up, but loves to cuddle! Note the uneaten pea flakes, not even the most delectable treat will distract her from her purpose.

What a fall we've had already! I had two on pregnancy watch, one is definitely pregnant, the other is still questionable.

I have three pairs of bonded ladies ready to find forever homes! Please reach out if you're ready to bring home these loving, sweet, hilarious babies.

Hello friends! We have been quiet online lately, what a busy summer! I have 3 pairs of bonded girls ready to find new homes, as well as one single boar, who has a very hard time making friends, but absolutely loves humans.

Will do a photo shoot in the next few days. For now, here is a picture from the fireworks competition!

Not exactly Glamour Shots, but have a glance at two recent arrivals! These ladies are on pregnancy watch after an encounter with a boar was unnoticed for at least 24 hours. They are vet checked and healthy, waiting to see if any beans develop in the next few weeks. Hoping we defy the odds and avoid pregnancy, as these two are still babies themselves. I'll be watching them for the next 6-8 weeks to be sure they aren't going to triple in size, but after that, they are going to need a forever home.

Two beautiful babies heading to their forever home in a little over a week, and our long-term resident Tree, who is still hoping to meet a family interested in a single-pig household.

We want to thank those who have asked, and we appreciate it so much, but at this time we are not set up to take financial donations or fundraise. Out 501c3 has been held up due to a location change and then maternity leave for our legal volunteer. For now, we remain home based, and so there are some things I just can't do.
I am not clear on the legality of something like a wishlist, but we do take just-past-fresh veggies, opened or unopened hay, and used water bottles if folks are passing those things on anyway. For some reason, we're always low on water bottles.

A little cuddle and feast time after nail trims. Except for Charley. Charley is eating a postal box. We love ya Charley.

This handsome boy has come back and would love to find a forever home! He is in the grumpy teenager stage, so best not try to pair him with another dominant pig right away. He does very well sharing a wall with other boys, but becomes a bit of a bully when sharing space.

He is a little skittish, but will take veggies/pea flakes from you and last time he was with us, he did get more friendly and used to being held. Definitely prefers human company to pig, regardless, but that will probably change once he settles down a bit.
