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.

Placerville: Two 5-year-old pigs need a new home. Raz is a very sweet female. Bob Hope is a neutered, partially blind male with a very kind personality; he was raised by his caregivers since he was 10 days old and has been around humans, including kids, his entire life. The two pigs are partners and need to stay together. Their caregivers’ property is going into foreclosure, and they must place Raz and Bob Hope ASAP. If you can adopt this duo, please contact Stephanie.

He is very gentle and gets along well with his alpaca and llama friends. The pigs are all small and are: one Mule-Footed male, one Mule-Footed/ Potbelly cross female and two Mule-Footed/ Potbelly Cross males.

Virginia

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.
