Pigs of Proud Spirit Horse Sanctuary

by Lavanya Sunkara

Melanie Sue Bowles started the Proud Spirit Horse Sanctuary 21 years ago, but it wasn’t just the neglected and abandoned horses that found a safe haven at the Sanctuary. Over the years, Melanie and her husband Jim Bowles have opened their hearts and doors to several cats, pigs, dogs and donkeys. In this slideshow, you will meet the two latest additions to the Proud Spirit family: pigs named Mimi and Nina.

You could win a copy of Melanie's book, The Horses of Proud Spirit! Just leave a comment on the slideshow below for your chance to win. Click here for official rules.

Pigs are highly intelligent and will bond strongly, given human care and affection from an early age. These two remind me of the pig in Larry McMurtry's classic novel, "Lonesome Dove".
