The Better Piggies Rescue, located near the Carefree Highway and 24th Street, is home to more than 200 rescue pigs – some were abandoned pets, while others were in abusive situations. The goal of the rescue is to make sure the pigs have a happy and safe place to live.
Recently, Better Piggies hosted a “Pig Yoga” event, where ABC15’s Nick Ciletti met founder Danielle Betterman, who explained there is a tremendous need for summer volunteers.
“We want people to see pigs in a different light,” explains Danielle. “These babies are just as sweet and kind as dogs and cats, and we want more people to bond with pigs. We want them to cuddle a pig, and once you cuddle a pig, you’ll never go back!”
