Finding Comfort and Friendship at The Happy Herd
This young male potbelly pig was spotted roaming around Langley one early December morning. He was subsequently picked up by animal control officers from the Langley Animal Protection Society (LAPS), and taken home by one of their employees. Due to his aggressive behaviour, he was soon returned to LAPS, and neutered. LAPS reached out to our farm sanctuary and we decided to bring him home.
Bebop lives with his big brother, Garth and similar sized brother Gordie. Since Garth was the runt of his siblings and had suffered their rejection, there was hope that Bebop could become a companion to Garth, and vice-a-versa. The pair met through the fence on the day of Bebop’s arrival, and they were very excited to meet one another.
We think Garth likes having a pig who is smaller than him for a friend, and Bebop is happy to have Garth’s company and leadership.
Whether he’s happily grazing amongst his friends, making a mud pit or napping with best pal Gordie, Bebop has clearly made himself at home here.
