About Miss Piggy

Miss Piggy has recently come to us after her owner could no longer keep her. As she adjusts to her new surroundings, our medical and behavioral teams will assess her. While she may have some pre-established training from her previous home, we can't guarantee those behaviors will carry over. She is pending interactions with other animals in the shelter until cleared by our vet. If you're considering adopting Miss Piggy, please fill out an adoption questionnaire. Our process operates on a first-come, best-match principle, so we cannot hold her. It's important for all household members, including children and other pets, to meet her to ensure everyone is a good fit together. If the match is successful, we encourage adopting on the same day. The adoption fee covers her spay, microchip, vaccinations, and a starter bag of food. Ready to find out if Miss Piggy is your new companion? Apply today!
