Happy Friday from Helen! This little lady will be headed home with her momma Michaella from The Bitch Barn on Sunday. She has gained 15lb since her arrival 2 weeks ago. She'll be back in our area in September to get her spay ๐ท๐
Helen jumped off of a slaughter truck in mid June. Thanks to her bravery, she saved herself from the same fate that millions of piglets face each year. Please keep piggies like Helen off your plate. #govegan @bitchbarn.pig.sanctuary.pa
Watch us trim up one of Aurora's feet in super speed! Her hooves were caked with rock-hard poop from exclusively living indoors for years. Aurora was surrendered with 3 other pigs in early July from a hoarding and neglect situation. She can walk comfortably again after we fixed her up. #hooftrim #farrier #pigfarrier #rescue
Oppenhogger and Einswine! Somehow, months after their arrival they still haven't been adopted. Oppenhogger (black) is quite the cuddler! Both boys are social, neutered, and about 9mo. Transport is available (with CVIs). Apply to adopt today: bit.ly/PSRadopt #pigsofinstagram #adoptme #adoptable #pigresvue #piggy #oink
Oppenhogger and Einswine are still waiting for forever homes. These two brothers are so precious!
Welcome Romeo! He was rescued in Fall 2018 from a pork farm; Pigsburgh Squealers Rescue helped to get him neutered.
Recently, his momma reached out to take him in after she could no longer keep him. Romeo's feet were severely overgrown, but we were able to fix him up as soon as he arrived! His skin is pretty rough from not being outdoors for 5 years. Since his arrival, he loves to go outside and sleep in the shade.
Romeo is a quiet, well-behaved boy. He'll be safe here until he finds his forever home.

*psst* Did you know Ollie is still looking for his forever home? He is super cuddly, sweet, lovable, and adorable! He is 3yo, neutered, and potty trained. Ollie would do best as a solo house piggy without dogs. Message us if you're interested!

Our first ever PIG LARP is only 3 weeks away on Saturday April 20th! What the heck is Pig LARP? It is a half-day live-action roleplaying event at our rescue. You attend in costume as any character you want and help run live adventures with our pigs along with human NPCs as your guide. You will act as the Storyteller, spinning a tale for the pigs to act out and become immersed in the world of cryptids and monsters. Forge new friendships and pet a ton of pigs!
The event begins at 1pm. Dinner, snacks, treat (game) bags, and pig treats will be provided. The day will end with a bonfire at sunset. Kids under 12 attend for FREE.

Boone is such a lover! ๐ฅบ๐๐ท It has been one week since his neuter and his personality is finally shining from behind the fading cloud of testosterone. He has always been a picky eater (so strange for a pig!) but his appetite is now fabulous. His neuter incision and dog attack wounds are almost totally healed up.
Just look how sweet he is! Boone just loves neck scratches. Boone is now available for adoption. He is about 1.5yo and 65lb. He would do best in a home with another fixed pig. You can apply to adopt here: bit.ly/PSRadopt

Welcome Ludo! We rescued this 4yo kunekune mix boar last Friday after he had been posted on a "free pets" page on Facebook. It was clear from the photos that he was in terrible shape: he was thin and living in a small pen full of mud and feces. Of course, there were several people keen on eating this sweet boy but we were able to scoop him up.
His former name was Oscar Meyer because it was the former owner's "favorite brand of bacon" ๐คฎ. The owners were very concerned about him getting "a good home". This was (unironically) painful to hear considering his skeletal frame, the conditions he lived in, and being posted for free on Facebook.
Ludo, a reference to a character in the iconic movie "Labyrinth", is his new name to commemorate his rescue. He has already settled in well, loving his regular warm meals and dry bed of straw. Ludo needs to gain some weight before getting neutered. You can donate towards his care here: bit.ly/supportPSR

Welcome Boone! This little boy is a dog attack survivor recently rescued in Boone County WV. This little boy has already been through so much!
Multiple people reported seeing a stray pig over a few weeks in a rural town. One day, someone saw him being chased by two dogs! His back end was all bloody... but they were not able to catch him. Thankfully, he wandered into someone's yard and our good friend (and pig mom) Lisa headed over to scoop him up.
Lisa cleaned his wounds and got him pain meds and antibiotics to help him heal up. His butt and legs were covered with gashes and half his tail was gone. Boone has already healed up so well! He is quite the frisky (read: horny) little guy but oh-so adorable.
Boone's neuter is scheduled for National Pig Day, this upcoming Friday March 1st. Please consider sending Boone and his two "cojones" a couple bucks towards his neuter. Neutering is an absolutely necessary first-step to getting him a forever home!

Thanks so much for your continued support. Without your incredibly generous donations, we wouldn't be able to help with little strays like Boone.

Two pig parents came to the rescue today to learn how to trim their girl's hooves. They drive 2.5hr each way to come to us, so it seems smart to teach them the skills to do it (safely) themselves. #hooftrim #farrier #minipig
