Chief

Chief came into our care through an Animal Control seizure case a few counties over. He was so obese he could barely move. Every step he took he stepped on his belly which drug on the ground. His hooves were terribly overgrown. He was blind and deaf from the excess fat. His living conditions were deplorable, and his physical condition was heartbreaking. A couple of good hoof trims have helped a bit with his stability. He has been on a weight loss program and is making great progress. His belly no longer drags on the ground, and he has regained a significant amount of his hearing. He still has a long way to go, but we think he is just as excited about all of his milestones as we are.

He had a severe case of pneumonia, was riddled with parasites, and was unable to regulate his body temperature due to being so ill.

Gracie

Gracie was a loved house companion that enjoyed the comforts of sleeping in her human’s bed, snuggles, leisurely outdoor time, proper diet, & healthy snacks. Gracie’s human passed away unexpectedly & she did not get a soft landing. She ended up with a relative with a drug problem who kept Gracie in a cage & fed her dog food. The relative eventually listed Gracie for sale on Christmas Eve & she had to be gone that day. Another relative stepped in and scooped Gracie up fearing that Gracie would be used in the local dogfighting ring. However, that relative was not a long-term option with no pig experience, 7 large breed dogs & a large family in very small living quarters. They reached out to their local Humane Society who immediately brought Gracie into safety. Unfortunately, the Humane Society wasn’t set up for pigs. So, while this was a temporary soft landing in a foster setting, she needed a permanent soft landing, and we are that for her.

Linus

Linus was 7 years old when his human dad got engaged and new humans moved into the house, Linus struggled with the changes, as pigs do. Linus showed his frustration and asserted his status with the new fiancé & child. Linus’s dad reached out to Chicagoland Pig Rescue for help. They gave him information, tools & resources to work through the behavioral changes so that Linus could stay with his dad & new family. Unfortunately, his dad decided against putting in any of the work or making accommodations, and instead scheduled Linus to be euthanized. This got back to CPR and they brought Linus into their organization to foster & find permanent placement. Linus exhibited signs of aggression while in foster care. That makes placement incredibly hard. Linus’s story sat heavy with us. After lots of thought & discussion we thought NSLB would be the right fit for Linus. We have a few other curmudgeons that we hope Linus will befriend.

Their family expanded and unfortunately Mason will not tolerate children. His rescue family did everything they could to make things work, but in the end, it was safest for everyone for Mason to find a new place to call him.
