My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Introducing Miss Piggy, a 2-year-old potbellied pig that came to us from a neighbor who could no longer care for her. Initially a bit shy, Miss Piggy is gaining confidence and becoming friendlier every day. Currently living outdoors, she could be transitioned to indoor life by those who are so inclined.

Pigs are known for their intelligence and social nature. They can be housetrained as well as trained to walk on leash, obey commands and do tricks. They enjoy the company, not only of other pigs, but humans, as well.

While Miss Piggy may tip the scales at a mature weight of 150+ lbs, her size is more akin to that of a medium-sized dog. She is already as big as she is going to get height-wise.

We’re looking for someone who can give Miss Piggy the time and attention she deserves, whether she remains an outdoor pig or a house pig. If you own or have owned a pig, you’re probably already aware of all the Facebook pig fan pages out there. If Miss Piggy becomes your first pig, you’ll find lots of companionship, good advice and friendship on those same pages.

We aren’t asking an adoption fee for Miss Piggy – just a commitment to her wellbeing. If you would like to make her part of her life, please email us or message us on Facebook: facebook.com/SavetheStraysAnimalRescue.

Their adoption process

Meet the Pet

Once approved, applicants can meet the dog and, if they like it, complete the adoption and take it home.

Additional adoption info

We are a home and foster care-based rescue, with no shelter facility or employees. Because our rescue dogs live in private homes, we ask those interested in adopting from us to complete our application as the first step in our process and only set up an appointment to meet the dog(s) in which they are interested after they are approved to adopt. Use our online application or email info@savethestrays.org to request an application.

More about this rescue

Save the Strays Animal Rescue is an all-volunteer 501c3 public charity and no-kill humane organization founded in 2004. Our mission is to rescue and rehome unwanted and abandoned dogs and provide lifelong care for any that are not adopted.

All of our dogs receive age-appropriate vaccinations. Dogs six months and older are spayed or neutered and tested for heartworms before adoption. Some of the dogs we rescue and make available for adoption are older, have suffered injuries or have treatable medical conditions. These have included blind dogs, deaf dogs, dogs with amputations, congenital deformities, and limited mobility, and dogs with heart conditions, diabetes and other chronic disorders. We disclose all known health conditions to potential adopters.

Because we do not euthanize rescued dogs to make room for others, some of these dogs may be with us for a number of years or even for life. Your donations help us pay for the care they need to maintain their quality of life in a loving home environment.
