My favorite part of our Best Friends Animal Sanctuary stay was working with the potbellied pigs. Matt and I had a lot of fun and learned a lot about these unique pets. Did you know they are smarter than dogs? And cleaner too! They designate one area of their area as the "bathroom", whereas with dogs...well, that's not always the case.
We started out on a tour of the pig pens, and then worked on getting dinner ready. We chopped lettuce, added food pellets and vegetables. Than we took Sprocket on a walk. He was a cute little pig. He was young, so he still had a few good years of growing. We than went around and gave all the pigs a snack--Popcorn! The pigs loved it.
We then took Naniue on a walk. Naniue means beautiful in Hawaiian. She was a lot of fun. She kept up with us, thanks to the Shredded Wheat.

I love Naniue! I want to cuddle her, do pigs snuggle?
