Adopt a Pot Bellied

Pot Bellied Pig

Gertie the Pig needs a home

Gertie is a beautiful, sassy, adult potbelly in need of a forever home that understands her special needs. Gertie came to us obese and it has been a process working to remove the excess weight she had put on. Adopters must be prepared to continue her weight loss program and manage health issues that can come with aging pigs such as arthritis. Don't let Gertie grumbles fool you, she is a sucker for a good belly rub and loves her daily application of coconut oil on her skin.




All Brother Wolf animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations before adoption (if species appropriate).

Application and counseling is required prior to all adoptions.



Individuals interested in adopting a puppy are STRONGLY encouraged to download and read this FREE ebook. Even if you've raised puppies in the past, this is an invaluable resource to help make your new addition successful!





Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label.
