My story

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

How this pet arrived:
This pet was brought in by their previous owner on 3/24/2024.

At SDHS:
This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for their new home!

Why this pet is the one for you:
Peaches is a friendly lady who is looking for her new home! This smart girl would thrive in a peaceful environment where she can indulge in mud baths, search for hidden treats and relax in the sun. While her vision isn't the best, her hearing is exceptional, especially when it comes to finding scattered treats tossed around her by her caretakers. Speaking of treats, she loves most fruits and veggies, but has taken a particular liking to beets, lettuce, apples and watermelon. Peaches knows her name, and she will cutely perk up her ears and turn to look at you when called. She's also learned the term "go on a walk" to leave her kennel for cleaning and "back to your kennel" to return. Peaches will make a wonderful pet to an adopter looking to add a whole lot of joy and cuteness to their life!

Before adopting a pig, it is important to confirm with your city that your property is properly zoned for housing a pig. Pigs also require a large outdoor space, appropriately fenced and containing access to a predator-proofed indoor shelter area. Pigs can bond to other animals, and they form very close relationships with humans. Pigs are extremely intelligent animals. Most pigs are food motivated and enjoy the mental stimulation of positive reinforcement training, just like dogs! Want to know more? Come and ask an adoption counselor today!
