  4. That's SOME pig! I love that painting! It reminds me of a book I saw this weekend that I just added to my Wish List called The Good Good Pig.

    I like the article Noah's Ark-- Meet the Kids. My questions is: Is he wrinkly, because he's lost so much weight? Or is that his "breed"?

  6. nfmgirl yes he is wrinkled because he was a major over weight. happens when they loss the weight to fast sometimes they go the other way and you cannot get the weight on them

  9. Wow, I agree, the painting is so beautiful and full of good energy!!!! ;0) I love the photos you posted of the piggies choosing the winner, that is such a unique, wonderful, and pig friendly idea. Pigs have such a negative stigma attached to them, I am so happy they have a friend like you to help! ;0) Michele http://mvegan5.etsy.com

  14. I love the little piggy necklace from a fridge magnet, it's very cute, and I like the fact that you use it as something for you to wear, I'm very much into that, i often oput a keyring decoration on a chain as a necklave and things like that, also you write about other artists, which is cool and generous of you. Also (nearly done - I promise!)I love the way you help pigs, they are so often misunderstood, and are fabulous creatures. You rock!

  17. Hi Shannon,

    yet again I have been immersed in many of your articles on this amazing blog!
    I left a comment on the wonderful pig parenting article about Noah's Ark.
    I also enjoyed reading about the White Pig B & B - and now I know where the Waltons came from! plus I visited their website from the link and saw adorable pictures of their pigs!

    Many thanks for the beautiful painting you did for me on your last giveaway - of Leila the rescued pig! I hope she is well :)

    thanks again - you are an angel of hope and inspiration for the pigs, and the other animals,
    kind regards,
    Annette
