Mission Statement

Piggy Sue Rescue Farm Sanctuary is creating HOG HEAVEN for unwanted or abandoned pet pigs and other critters in North Texas


Located in North Texas about 50 miles north of Dallas

 

We have a large ranch and a love of all animals.  After obtaining my wildlife rehab permit, I saw there was a huge need for unwanted pigs and all the rescues were full, so I started my own.

 

What started out as a pig rescue quickly grew to accommodate other animals including a mini longhorn rescued from a Kill Pen, a mini mule, numerous chickens and roosters confiscated by animal control in areas up to 200 miles away.

 

We have 300 beautiful acres including woods and ponds.  All the animals are free to roam and graze during the day, and sheltered safely at night with barns, heat & straw.

 

Gaining the trust of pigs in our care is the most rewarding part of what we do; by providing safety and love, we're able to watch them grow in confidence, learn true joy, and become their truest selves. We're also home to 200+ head of cattle, numerous goats, 9 newly rescued working cats from SPCA of Texas Working Cat Program and about 100 chickens and roosters, even two male peacocks, two retired longhorn heifers age 17 & 21, and two retired race horses, goats, sheep, rabbits and more


Our duty is to educate the public and disrupt the pig paradigm that results in them being seen as food, commodities, bred and starved to be "micro pigs," tested on, and under-appreciated in the scope of the animal world. People ask us all the time: why pigs? We hope that if you spend a little bit of time with us, you'll be able to answer that for yourself.
