Sex: Female
Species: Pig
Estimated Birth Date: 6/6/2013
Pip Squeak is the product of neglect. She is so overweight she can hardly walk. This poor girl was literally fed almost to death. Yes a pig can be overweight and Pip Squeak is so heavy she isn’t healthy. She’s also never had a hood trim which greatly impacted her mobility as well.
We are working to get Pip Squeak to a healthy weight. It’s going to take awhile as she didn’t gain the weight overnight. She’s now had her hooves trimmed which will help with her ability to walk and get the appropriate exercise. In time this girl will be at the appropriate weight and ready for adoption.
If you’re looking to add a pig to your crew shoot us a message at adoptions@marleysmutts.org.
Each adoptable pet will be introduced on Facebook
Each pet will have its own profile here on the website
All pets will be spayed or neutered
All pets will be micro-chipped and shots will be up-to-date
Each pet has their own application to complete—make sure you use the right one (linked from their bio)
It’s important to us that each pet goes not just to a great home but to the “right” home. Our foster parents work with each pet to get to know them and their needs.
We try hard to list all of the pertinent info about each pet on the site so you can choose the pet that will fit with your family/lifestyle. If you don’t see a specific pet on the site, he/she is not ready for adoption. Please be patient and wait until the bio is listed. We don’t decide on a “first come, first served” basis but rather on a “who’s the very best fit.” So, don’t panic.
It’s not a quick process. We receive dozens of applications for each pet so please be patient. If you’re shortlisted you’ll be contacted as soon as possible.
If selected to meet one of our pets and you currently have pets, you’ll be asked to do an in-person pet intro; we don’t do the long-distance adoption thing. If you live out of town, plan a fun road trip to meet the pet in person.
Don’t be discouraged if your application is not selected. Remember, we get a lot of them! Trust us, the best fit for you is coming.
If you’re lucky and you do adopt a super amazing pet from Marley’s Mutts, don’t ever hesitate to reach out to us for training, medication, or behavior questions. We’re here for you, and your pet.
