Happy gottcha day, sweet Po. Hope you’re drinking lemonade and taking long naps on The Other Side today with Judy, Coconut, Willy, and Sunshine. We love you more than ever and miss you an unspeakable amount. 🌈💕 #bestperson #pothepiggo #pobear #pigstagram #pothedragonwarrior #loveoneanother #theotherside #rainbowbridge #animalambassador #bekind #veganfortheanimals #friendsnotfood #rainbowbridge🌈 #missyoueveryday #bestfriend #pigsofinstagram #pigsaspets #piggo #specialneeds #survivor #pigsofinsta #rescuedpig #missyou #po #farmanimalsanctuary #blackberrycreek #deathdoesntendarelationship #disabledandproud #perfect @pothepiggo (at Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNgmYVJMbzT/?igshid=57nwtbipaij9

Flashback to Halloween 2018 when Po was looking dapper in his fancy hat. We miss him so. Stay tuned for more rescued animals in the spooky spirit today! #happyhalloween #pobear #missyoubuddy #bestpiggo #loveoneanother #blackberrycreek #sanctuarylife #pigsarefriendsnotfood #halloweentime @pothepiggo #fancydude #thathattho #pigstagram #cutepigs #pigoftheday #piglovers #rescuedpig #friendsnotfood #halloweencostume #halloween🎃 (at Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHBEzLWsHrL/?igshid=57klv0a71nx3

Our favorite painting of our Po angel done by one of our favorite artists @grace__pierce 🌈 And yes, that is glitter on his halo because he’d have the sparkliest one around! 😇 #pobear #missyoubuddy #wedhavesomuchmovietime #duringquarantine #loveyoualways #bestpigever #piggopal #pothedragonwarrior #loveoneanother #blackberrycreek #pigsofinstagram #cutepigs #heaven #rainbowbridge @theotherside.ig (at Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-az1uWH9zh/?igshid=13l9g7rnf6r63

In honor of National Pig Day, we’d like to share a special video in memory of Po. We made this shortly after his passing to honor him at our Blackberry Creek Christmas dinner, and now hope to bring joy and happy memories of Po to all those who knew and loved him. Please leave pigs off of your plate. They are the most beautiful friends. ❤️ You can see the whole video on our YouTube channel or via the link in our bio. #missyoubuddy #loveyouforever #loveiseternal #pobear #pothedragonwarrior #thegrandpobah #pigstagram #cutepigs #pigsofinstagram #friendsnotfood #loveoneanother #blackberrycreek #rainbowbridge🌈 #theotherside @theotherside.ig #heaven #whenpigsfly #cutepig #piggo #sanctuary #rescuedpig https://www.instagram.com/p/B9N4xkyHKF9/?igshid=30ewjlpz8xal

It was quite the day getting Po to UCD to have his tests done. As usual, we are blown away by our incredible vet team and morning caregiver who are some of the most badass women we know! After a couple of hours of trying to get our 600lb disabled guy into the trailer, Dr. Natalie finally had to sedate him, and he made the road trip, snoring and snuggled the whole way (swipe to see a pic we snapped of him cozy and sleeping as we arrived at the vet hospital). He woke up just in time to be loaded onto the forklift and taken to a warm and comfy hospital barn stall. That’s right... Po rode a forklift today... sitting up and nearly giving his mother a heart attack as he soared through the air. 🤦🏼‍♀️😳 He's now settled in with a pig patient across the aisle from him and a baby goat in a wheelchair next door. He's staying for at least a few days, and will be going under general anesthesia tomorrow morning. Putting a pig under is always dangerous, but he will be continually supervised by a team of anesthesiologists, and his medical team feels like this is the best course of action to see what’s going on with him. He'll have a stomach ultrasound, radiographs, and they'll try to do a dental exam and hoof trim while he's knocked out. They are going to try to also ultrasound his hips as well since they have the larger machines there to see if we can get more insight into his hip and spinal disability as well. Thank you for your thoughts, prayers, and love. He is in good hands and we'll be visiting him and keeping you all posted. ♥️ #pobear #pothedragonwarrior #thegrandpobah #hospitalpatient #forkliftflyer #whenpigsfly #goodestofboys #blackberrycreek #positivevibes #prayersforpo #teampo #loveoneanother #thankful #pigstagram #ucdavis #ucdanimalhospital #cbarn #thankyou @nstab6 @nosh.on.plants @dianapope238 Follow him @pothepiggo 🐷 (at UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5XEYVKHa3u/?igshid=1qsiyvqlpxa2b

After several weeks of not feeling well (constipation, upset tummy, low temp, not wanting food, etc.), new stomach meds, three enemas, and a visit from Dr. Natalie, Po is headed to the UC Davis Large Animal Hospital tomorrow afternoon. They’re going to run some tests, and we are hoping to get to the bottom of what’s going on with our special guy! It’s REALLY cold here tonight, so yes, those are fuzzy socks on his ears, and Mom is getting up every few hours to make sure he’s still covered in blankets and straw. Prayers, love, and well wishes would be wonderful for our Po Bear. ♥️🐷 #pothedragonwarrior #pobear #pothepiggo #blackberrycreek #loveoneanother #friendnotfood #pignotpork #lovehim #tothemoonandback #piggo #pigsofinstagram #pigstagram #sockears @pothepiggo https://www.instagram.com/p/B5UniOAnGPe/?igshid=vz7i6cf5mgwv
