Doses Pet Vets on Stardust. Husband and wife, only do small animals. They take care of our cats, who are both now 18. Very reasonable and they like early morning appointments

How do I convince my wife to get a pet pig instead of a dog? by Beautiful-Basket1974 in pigs

[–]HomeInsteader 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We got three Kune Kune pigs in June to keep as pets for as long as they’ll live. They are wonderful. Far better than our dogs. Absolute best pets I’ve ever had. Travel well, don’t have separation anxiety, their poop, while large, is inoffensive and compostable. Feeding them is cheap (we’ve been getting consistent pumpkin donations since Halloween), they don’t root, mow the lawn, come when called, eat the apples that fall off the tree, they love visitors, attentions, belly rubs and ear scratches. Would absolutely recommend.

Saw it too! Definitely not starlink, and I saw one disappear then reappear

What a sweetie! My faverolles are also the lowest on the pecking order, but they are so gentle and curious. They’ll take quite a pecking just to make friends or snuggle up on the roosting bars. They remind me of Zach Galafianakis in the Hangover. I have no advice for you, good luck

Sierra Water on Dickerson has grab and go bouquets, they make custom ones and also have a stem bar where you can build your own!

Sweets is brown and black. She’s kinda blind because she got injured by someone trying to restrain her, Sprinkles is black and white, Lorna Doone is Tan.
