Penny is an outside piggy in need of a new home after her mom got sick and can no longer provide proper care for her. She's been good with the larger dogs in the home, and used to be fine with kids and still occasionally accepts pets from them. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.) She needs more attention and care than she's currently getting. Her hooves are in need of a trim. She is spayed. Penny used to know a few tricks (down, sit, spin), but it's been a while since anyone worked on these with her.
The daughter is helping rehome and said: Penny was bought by my mother who treated her like a child. She slept indoors and was free to roam wherever she pleased. I used to joke that she was my spoiled little sister. But then my mom got sick and it became hard for her to spend time with Penny. She has been outside in her pen since the end of 2020. Occasionally the dogs will break her out and they will run around and play.
