HANK's Story

Meet Tank and Hank! These two shy pigs are looking for a home with someone who understands—or is excited to learn about—proper pig care! They can be a bit shy at first, so they’ll appreciate patient, gentle people who will give them plenty of time to settle in and build trust. Pet pigs need secure, spacious housing with protection from extreme weather, a clean and comfortable sleeping area, and plenty of room to explore and root. They thrive with daily enrichment such as rooting boxes, scattered treats, sturdy toys, and opportunities to forage, as pigs are highly intelligent and can become bored without enough mental stimulation. A balanced mini-pig/pig-specific diet, fresh water, appropriate vegetables, routine hoof care, and regular veterinary care are also important. Because pigs are social animals, companionship is valuable. We’re looking for some pig-loving adopters who can provide these shy kiddos with the patience, enrichment, space, and care they need to thrive!

Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region's Adoption Policy
You’ll notice each pet will have an info card attached to their kennel with an ID number. Write down this ID number so a matchmaker can give you more information. You will also be asked to complete an adopter survey to help our matchmakers assist you in finding a new pet that’s just the right fit. We limit visitations to two pets per family, per day. This ensures everyone interested in adopting has the opportunity to spend time with their potential new family member. Puppies and kittens 5 months and younger are not able to visit before going home for adoption. Please speak with a staff member for details. Once your visit is complete, you will meet with a customer service representative. We will review any special medical or behavior information and offer tips on how to help you get settled in. Please bring a photo ID and review any pet restrictions that may exist within your lease/rental agreement, HOA bylaws, or city’s ordinances.
