Ironwoods Newest Residents

We had two new pigs join the Ironwood group this week. First I'd like to introduce Ziggy. Ziggy is incredible!! He's very large and very sweet. It's hard to look at him and not produce a smile. Ziggy comes from a nice home. Unfortunately, due to the economy and housing foreclosures Ziggy needed a new home. Ben made the drive to Phoenix to pick him up. To Ben's surprise Ziggy was a lot bigger than we had thought!! The drive back to Ironwood was pretty tough of Ziggy. Ben had to make frequent stops to spray him with water and ensure he was safe.

He now loves to roam and hit on all the lady pigs. He's a charmer!














Our other newcomer is Bo Jangles!! Bo is 11 months old. His family turned him into the Phoenix Humane Society due to Bo having a possible infected eye and maybe more. Without being able to pay vet bills the family opted to turn him over to the HS. They called us and Mary could not turn down this boy. Lucky for him because he is now enjoying many belly rubs and finding pools to hang out it. We have a vet appointment set up to find out what's going on with his eye. I will update on that! Now, here's Bo!
