This is Siouxsie Sioux. We rescued her when Animal Control picked her up as a stray and her owners wouldn't pay $35 to get her back. Animal Control didn't want to euthanize her, even though they were required to do so, so they held onto her until we rescued her. Siouxsie knew how to walk on a leash and made herself at home on the couch when we first rescued her. She's a pot-bellied/American Guinea hog mix. We named her after one of the coolest punk rock singers. (fb)

Ruby and Dorothy, rescued as stray piglets, are flourishing despite the adversity they faced. Their remarkable bond and spirited disposition are a shining testament to the unbreakable resilience of these two survivors. Although their siblings were lost because they were shot before we could rescue them, their story underscores the profound impact of compassionate rescue efforts. (fb)
