ANIMAL ADVOCACY & PIGLET'S RESCUE FUND

Piglet was rescued from a hoarding situation in Georgia when he was a newborn puppy. While Piglet was fortunate to have found a devoted loving family, there are many dogs like him still looking for their forever homes. Through our social media pages, Piglet has become an ambassador for disabled rescued animals.

Our advocacy efforts and Piglet's Rescue Fund were set up to:

  • Educate about and advocate for rescued animals through our social media pages, Piglet Mindset® educational program, as well as webinars on a number of veterinary topics
     
  • Encourage spay and neuter of dogs and cats in light of the pet overpopulation problem
     
  • Motivate individuals to adopt rescued pets, especially those who are disabled
     
  • Provide funding to rescue organizations that focus on disabled dogs and other animals
     
  • Support for The Disabled Pets Project, a comprehensive resource for veterinarians, pet parents, and rescuers who care for disabled pets. The website is disabledpets.org
     
  • The fund is supported by direct donations as well as a portion of all Piglet merchandise sales.

PIGLET AND GEORGIE'S KINDNESS CLUB

Piglet and Georgie's Kindness Club has been created to encourage children to bring Kindness Campaigns to their communities. Examples of Kindness activities include running a food drive and delivering the food to local food pantries, or raising awareness for animal rescues by collecting dog and cat food and other supplies for their local animal shelters and rescue organizations. Some children might be interested in organizing book drives where they raise funds and support so they can purchase and donate books to head start programs, community day cares, school libraries, and individual children.

There are so many ways to bring kindness into the community.

We hope Piglet and Georgie's Kindness Club will motivate everyone to remember to be kind!

The Special K9 Games is an agility event for disab The Special K9 Games is an agility event for disabled dogs. 

This weekend, Georgie had an amazing time practicing his agility skills so he could compete this afternoon. 

This is a for-fun agility event which gives dogs like Georgie, who is deaf and blind, an opportunity to participate in a fun sport with accommodations for their disabilities. 

Georgie is fast asleep feeling really proud of his accomplishments at The Games.🩷

This is why we travel across the country to bring This is why we travel across the country to bring our tiny deaf blind dogs to an agility event for disabled dogs!

This is Piglet's 5th special k9 games and Georgie's 3rd. They couldn't wait to get onto the A frame and into the tunnels. Their enthusiasm is infectious. This event is for them. They don't have this opportunity anywhere else bc local agility classes have said "NO bc they are a liability!"

This is our new dog Ruby's first special games. We didn't know how she would react bc we've only had her for 4 weeks. But, take a look at this video to see her debut at the games! 

Our meet and greet was awesome. Thanks to everyone who attended! 

Tomorrow is the agility competition! Can't wait to see how the boys and Ruby do.

This tiny deaf blind pink dog has no trouble havin This tiny deaf blind pink dog has no trouble having fun on a college campus.

Dogs who are deaf and blind need to be kept safe from running into unexpected obstacles in new areas. A large open area like this was perfect for Piglet to run freely. 

What's so remarkable about this video is that Piglet feels confident and trusts us to keep him safe so he can enjoy running in a big grassy field. 

He's a very happy sweet boy.
This is why I don't feel bad about having so many This is why I don't feel bad about having so many dogs. He's a human dog bed and he's happy to be smothered with love from these precious tiny rescued dogs.
Ironically, my original dream was to have one cool Ironically, my original dream was to have one cool dog who came everywhere with me. But now, having 8 dogs who come everywhere with me is pretty awesome!

Piglet relies on his senses of smell and touch. Wh Piglet relies on his senses of smell and touch. When environmental factors get in the way of his ability to get to the back door by scents and tracking, we help him out. 

He's got a lot of pride but even though he was a little bit embarrassed to be carried, he made it up the ramp and into the house on his own, with dignity. 

We try to support our tiny deaf blind boy with just enough but not too ouch help! He's a very independent little dog. 

How'd we all do?

Welcome to our new Ruby Foster🩷🐾🩷🐾🩷 Welcome to our new Ruby Foster🩷🐾🩷🐾🩷

Yes, of course, she's deaf and significantly vision impaired. And yes, we are all still adjusting to her 9 month old spunky poodle play-style. 

Who wants to guess how long it will take Piglet to give in and play with Ruby? Hint- it took Piglet 10 months to give in and play with Baby Georgie. 

Thanks to Trisha @t_perfectimperfections for rescuing this precious little girl.

The dog distraction quotient is so real!
