Smudgecake and his brother, Cromwell, have chronic hoof issues (likely genetic) that call for sedated dremmeling and internal cleaning 2-3 times a year. Our awesome vet @nstab6 has to safely put them under which is incredibly hard to do with pigs, drill into their feet, remove any infection, and then bandage and give pain medication. If you’d like to sponsor one of the pigs monthly for this specific procedure it breaks down to about $58/year per pig. You can set up a monthly gift on Patreon at: https://www.patreon.com/blackberrycreek If you’d rather contribute a smaller, one time gift you can do so on Venmo @blackberrycreeksanctuary or at the donation link in bio! Thank you as always, for your support of our rescued friends! #pigpals #hooftrouble #andrewksmudgecake #cromwellthemagnificent #pigsofinstagram #friendsnotfood #ligsarepeopletoo #goodestofboys #vetsrock #smudgie #veterinarymedicine #piglovers (at Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFDjIqoMXGW/?igshid=25z12om4kp89
