Puddin - Pot Belly Pig
Charlie & Charlotte - Pot Belly Pigs
Charlie and Charlotte are a brother and sister duo seized by the SPCA due to a pot belly hoarding situation in Ladysmith B.C. Charlie is by far the sweetest pig at the sanctuary and a LOVER of belly rubs! Charlotte is incredibly social but also the slowest eater in the pot belly herd (which is quite remarkable for a pig). To ensure she gets her share she is separated at every meal time. |
Hazel - Pot Belly Pig

Hazel came to us from the SPCA and the same hoarding situation as Charlie and Charlotte. We were asked to take her because she had been at the SPCA for several months and hadn't found a forever home.
Hazel is also Charlie and Charlotte's Mom so we were very excited to reunite them with her💕💕
Alice & Koda
Alice and Koda were our original rescues before we started the Sanctuary. These two had some behavioural issues that resulted in them being difficult to adopt. My husband and I chose to adopt them when I was 6 months pregnant which at the time didn't seem like the greatest idea considering we would be bringing another great change in their lives 4 months later. Lucky for us, our tiny human didn't cause them any grief and they are quite happy ruling the house.
Alice is quite insistent on being on your lap no matter what you're doing and Koda is a drool machine!

Violet & Eugene - Guinea Hogs
Eugene and Violet are a brother and sister pair that were abandoned in Mission, BC in the fall of 2017. When they were found they were emaciated and terrified of humans but these are no longer issues now that they're safe at the Sanctuary. Eugene is the squealer of all squealers at meal time while Violet is always patient and composed. |
Juniper - Pot Belly Pig

Juniper came from the same hoarding situation as Hazel, Charlie and Charlotte. Just like Hazel the Cowichan SPCA was not able to find her a forever home so she came into our care. It's an all too common story for full grown pot belly's, as it's difficult to find a home once they are out of the adorable piglet phase.
Juniper is a love bug and asks for affection from literally everyone.
Gracie - Pot Belly Pig
Gracie was surrendered to us because she was continually nursing from her previous owners goats, yes you read that right! This behaviour prevented the goats from being bred because they could not dry them out. Due to the measures in which she was transported to the sanctuary it took some time for her to gain trust in humans again. Gracie has exceptional hearing and is the first one to raise the food alarm bell. |
Finnegan, Buddy, Smurfy & Remi - Goats
These four boys arrived to us from a loving home on Denman Island after their care taker passed away from cancer. The previous care takers family tried for a year to find them a home but were unsuccessful. They are all well into their senior years but still young at heart and get into mischief whenever the opportunity arises. |
Elvis & Presley - Roosters
Elvis and Presley were surrendered because they were "supposed" to be hens in a backyard chicken operation. They had to be rehomed due to noise bylaws where they were being raised. They are your everyday roosters with traits roosters are known for which include crowing and ensuring everyone knows they are the boss!
Charles - Pot Belly Pig
Petunia - Pot Belly Pig
Petunia came to us in November 2018 due to several health concerns that needed to be addressed. Petunia is morbidly obese which has resulted in "fat blindness", her hooves are extremely overgrown and she has a hernia on her back end. She is currently on a special rehab program to improve her sight and mobility. She is quite the diva and frequently enjoys meals in bed if the weather is poor outside! This lucky girl is sponsored by Pure Lovin' Chocolate! |
Sadie, Delilah and Doris - Chickens
Sadie came into our care when she was just one day old. She was the lone chick that hatched to a family that tried to incubate several eggs. Delilah came to us from a backyard chicken operation when she was deemed no longer valuable because she no longer lays eggs. She came with a severe case of leg mites which has now been taken care of. Doris came to us after she was the last survivor of several predator attacks from another backyard chicken operation. She also came with leg mites which have been successfully treated. |
Holly, Scott, Ducky McDuckerton, Janet, Suzie Q., Gabriella, Donald, Margaret, Glimmer & Daisy
Lillian - Berkshire Pig
Theodore - Yorkshire Pig
Theodore is 949 pounds of studliness. Theo was found at large on the Fraser Hwy in Langley BC in the summer of 2018 and was seized by LAPS (Langley Animal Protection Society) after his owner declined to take him back. After almost 8 months in their care Theo took the media by storm when LAPS campaigned to find him a forever home by Christmas. In the end over 50 potential adopters came forward from all the way over in PEI and all the way down to Texas; in the end we were asked to provide his forever home. The media frenzy has followed Theo and he has been featured on several news segments and most recently predicted the Super Bowl winner. Theo is a laid back fun loving sweetheart that everyone adores!
