My story

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

Meet Junior!

Junior is a full grown Kune Kune pig that arrived all the way from Dallas, Oregon on 1/21/2024. His rescuer Paula, owner of Willow Branch Horse Rescue (https://willowbranchequines.org) received a call about a pig that was found running down a road last October. Paula, who only rescues horses, did not hesitate to help Junior. She was able to maneuver him into a nearby field and later came back with her horse trailer and brought him to her rescue. Even though everyone at Willow Branch enjoyed Juniors company Paula knew he needed to be around other farm animals, especially pigs since they are very social animals.

After Junior had some time to decompress from his travels, our farm vet came to Sanctuary One to castrate, deworm and trim Juniors tusks and feet. Other than he has a few pounds to gain he is in great health!

Junior has quickly become a staff favorite with his funny personality, he spends his days out in the barnyard with 4 goats. He is learning his name and will come when called, Junior has a wonderful personality!

Additional adoption info

Most, but not all, of the Sanctuary's animals are available for adoption because the more animals we adopt out, the more endangered animals we can take in.

Every animal adopted from Sanctuary One comes with a lifetime promise. If something happens and you can no longer care for the animal you adopt, he or she is always welcome back at the Sanctuary.

Each animal available for adoption has been evaluated by a veterinarian and is current on vaccinations. They’ve also undergone a basic behavioral assessment and have had their diets evaluated and specialized as needed.

In addition, our staff provides free telephone/email counseling for all adopters. If you have any questions or concerns about your adopted animal, contact us and we'll do our very best to help you.

More about this rescue

Sanctuary One at Double Oak Farm is a nonprofit care farm where people, animals, and the earth work together for mutual healing.

Care farming (also known as green care, farm care, or farming for health), is well established in Europe, but is a relatively new concept in the United States.

Sanctuary One demonstrates how farming for health can be a cheap, natural, and effective means of healing people; how animals can be treated humanely and honored for their intrinsic physical and spiritual value; and how the environment that sustains us all can be steadily improved through organic and permaculture-inspired farming practices.
