Antelope: Wendy is a 2 ½-year-old female potbellied pig who was dumped in the yard of her current caregiver. Her caregiver is now 79 years old and cannot keep her, and Wendy gets lonely, since she has no fellow potbellies for companionship. Wendy is friendly and does not bite but is a little nervous and shy at times. She would like a permanent home where she will be loved. If would like to welcome Wendy into your home, please contact her human friend DeAnna.

Cool: Melissa is seeking a home for Wedgewood and Shiloh, who were originally found living along the highway in Solano County. Both are neutered male Durocs that are 3.5 and 4 years old. Wedgie has always been really a fun, humorous, and social pig. Shiloh is very quiet and sedate, but friendly and loves to have his back scratched. He seems to have some difficulty hearing, seeing and walking. They have lived in a very large penned in area with big splash ponds and a large shed/house. They are very nice and friendly pigs, but both need to have their tusks trimmed, as Melissa can no longer afford care for them. Please consider welcoming these sweet and loving creatures into your hearts and home. Thanks for considering their adoption.

Methuen: Meet Alfie! He is an adorable little red and white Hampshire farm piglet. He was the runt of the litter and tugged at someone’s heart strings. Unfortunately, they had no place to keep him. Alfie will be fairly large when full grown and weigh about 500-600 lbs. He will need a good deal of space to root around and forage. His pen will need to be sturdy and strong with an enclosure that will protect him from the elements. Alfie currently loves to go for walks on leash and is being clicker trained to sit. His adopter should have some pig experience since he will need to learn his manners now while he is small and easy to work with.

Afton: Lucky is a very small one year-old spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated mixed breed pig. She was originally sent to a livestock auction with a group of feeder pigs, but was so undersized that she wasn’t sent to the butcher with all of her fellow pigs. Lorelei intervened and saved her from slaughter, but she is now in need of a new permanent home. She is small for her age and will probably not grow nearly as large as a typical farm pig.
