My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello, my name is Dapper!

Some nice people were having a picnic one day in a park in a place called Rowland Heights, when they heard something under a bush. They said it sounded like a bird but it was ME! I was yelling loudly "WHEEEK WHEEEK" because I wanted someone to help me.

Someone had left me there in that park and I was very scared. I am a domesticated Dapper fellow and a park is no place for someone like me.

So the nice people picked me up and then found SCGPR and asked them to take me in. The really nice rescue people took me in and gave me a safe and loving foster home. I am SOOOOO happy to be safe, have all of the hay and food I could ever want and have people who love me.

Now I just need a forever home with nice people who will not dump me in a park like those other mean people.

I would like a home with another piggy, either as a grid buddy or a cage mate.
The people at SCGPR are experts at bonding boy piggies so they can supervise a playdate to make sure me and my new friend like each other.

I promise to give my new family lots and lots of love and make your heart happy if you promise to give me a wonderful home for the rest of my life. Piggies like me can live a long time (5-8) and I am young so we will have a lot of time together!

Thank you for reading,
Dapper

Dapper is under a year old (as of March 2024) He's a super handsome abyssinian with a great personality.

All of our piggies are fostered in LA, OC and Ventura Counties so please message us if you would like to meet any of them.
