Gentleman Of The Farm
Earl, the charming potbelly pig, is truly the gentleman of the farm. He loves to engage with everyone and is always quick to run over and say hello whenever he hears a familiar voice. Despite his love for food, he is quite generous and has no problem sharing his meals with the free-range chickens on the farm.
However, Earl has been going through a tough time lately. He lost his beloved wife, Sue, on 4-3-2022. Sue was blind and had a seizure disorder, and Earl had been her devoted companion throughout their time together. Losing her has been especially difficult for Earl, and he is still trying to come to terms with her passing.
Despite the passage of time, Earl is still coping with the loss of his beloved wife, Sue. He has yet to let any other pig into their shared area and continues to make a bed for both of them every night out of hay. It’s heartwarming to see the lengths that Earl will go to keep Sue’s memory alive.
Earl’s grief is a reminder that animals, like humans, can experience strong emotions and form meaningful relationships. We believe that it’s our responsibility to provide them with the love and care they need to navigate these emotions, just like we would with our human loved ones.
Jackson also has epilepsy so this was particularly hard on him. Together with Earl, we were with her as the vet helped her slip away peacefully. We are so grateful for the understanding and kindness of our vet.
Sue & Earl’s original Bio…
Meet Sue & Earl….While we do not know much about this sophisticated couple’s early years, they were discovered on the side highway. There has been a lot of speculation about their reason for being on the side of the road with nobody looking for them. Nonetheless, Earl may suffer from chronic dry skin, but he can move like the wind when he senses food is coming. Sue, unfortunately, suffers from a permanent limp and is blind, when she gets confused or scared all she needs to do is call out and Earl is quick to come to her aid. While they may bicker like most married couples, Sue makes up their bed every night where this swine couple snuggles close.
