501(c)(3) EIN: 77-0431195 Visits are by appt. only with limited hours available. Our Passion is Pigs.

We strive to provide the best care possible and to ensure a calming environment at all times. They need to build their trust in people. By having limited visiting hours, we hope to speed up the adjustment process.The majority of our pig residents have been rescued from extreme situations and have never had a home to call their own. Many are adults were never socialized or given the chance to live

outside a cage. We offer open land to wander and let the pigs choose their own shelter and who they want to share it with or not. Rescues get to live their lives as pigs were meant to do. We also participate in several educational outreach programs and school visits. We provide factual and up-to-date information for current or prospective pig owners including home inspections and arrange adoptions. We rehabilitate "problem" pigs while providing assistance to shelters and general rescue assistance for animals that are being neglected or abused. Networking closely with other partner rescue groups.

Thursday I went to LOH to work on the fun paperwork side of rescue. I like to do any paperwork as long as my music is playing 🎸🩷 Suey made us a wonderful lunch/dinner of her excellent Huveos Rancheros. It's amazing just how much work we can accomplish when Sue feeds me 🤣

This was a very special day. We've been boarding Toki for several years. Toki's mom, Lynn came to visit her piggy and got to meet Snout her current companion 💙 Toki is blessed to have her mom come to spend time with her. So many pigs are forgotten about after a couple of months of boarding them. Sadly, their owners never come back. Lynn has been a longtime friend and visits her sweet Toki 🩷 These are the special stories to share. We look forward to her next visit!!!

Sharing a rare and beautiful story 🐷

💓🐽SPOT loves her dad! We have shared their story before but its worth sharing again. SPOT joined the sanctuary when her dad found himself having to sell his home. He wanted a safe place for SPOT where he could conitnue to visit her. We hear that all the time from people surrendering their pets and no one ever follows through in visiting, except SPOT's dad. He comes to visit SPOT every few weeks and brings her treats to share as they spend time together. It's very sweet and endearing. We wish more people were as dedicated as SPOT's dad.
