It made me cry too. This pig is living such a happy joyous life, while so many other pigs live in total hell, stuck in tiny crates, getting physically abused, and then slaughtered inhumanely. This pig spends most of his time grunting joyously in bliss while those pigs spend most of their time screeching in terror and agony. Where is the justice? Those pigs have the exact same sentient abilities as the pig in this video yet won't ever have the rights to live the safe privileged life surrounded by love and completely free from harm that the pig in this video is blessed with. I wish so much that more pigs could have better lives. I wish so much for pig abuse and inhumane slaughter to end. It matters. Pigs are very sentient and really know how to experience what's around them. It's why their experiences must be good
@@brierobinson194, pigs are very sensitive and emotional, and they can feel both the most happy joy and most extreme terror, and it all depends on what's happening to them. Pigs don't usually swing emotions on their own like humans do because they are so simple. With pigs, it's simply about where they are and what they are experiencing. Pigs are obviously miserable and terrified beyond imagination when getting physically abused and harmed, going to slaughter, and stuck in those horrible tiny crates. And, almost everytime I've seen pigs in a sanctuary where they see that they're safe, are having plenty of space, getting fed well, rolling in mud, and getting belly rubs, they look to be in total bliss. It's not really asking that much what gives pigs their simple joyful happiness. It's why it's so heartbreaking how many pigs in this world are denied that
That hurricane was the best thing to ever happen to that pig. His original purpose in life was to be slaughtered for food and that storm gave him the chance he needed to live a happy life. That's one lucky pig and some wonderful people for saving him.
@@bonnieforman9700 I don't know how anyone can this treat an animal and not just feel sick inside oh, because it makes me feel sick inside just thinking about it. I even get stressed out for the animals that are wild outside when the weather gets cold. I think about how hard their lives must be.
@@lockergr I never stop thinking about animals. And now the horror of Australia. Fires deliberately set by 24 men that killed 480 million animals, burned to death. They need to be burned to death as penalty.
This couple is amazing. The time, money and love that they unconditionally invested in Champ's well being is commendable beyond words. The people are living proof that Angels exist.
We often glorify the animals in these videos but the real MVPs are the couple that made all this possible for the pig. No doubt all that was incredibly expensive. Beautiful souls.
We aren't "glorifying" the animals - we are showing that they are sentient beings who want to love, be loved and live their lives. We should not be paying $ for them to be "bred" into existence only to be treated like a piece of meat all their lives until the horrendous massacre at the end. We can ALL BE BEAUTIFUL SOULS by NOT eating these animals and saving the animals from life worse than death. It's very very easy to be beautiful souls. :)
Agree man....I keep wondering how much they spent for Champ....4 months hospital bills, prostetic leg, home...that's must be huge!!! But I'm glad there's people like them in this world!!! Priceless
My favorite part was when they said "Who's ready? Who's ready!?" and I expected to be like people there but instead there were these cute sheep that looked so confused. I laughed so hard I think I broke something..
Agreed EDIT: 2 weeks ago, I posted the reply above, "Agreed". After giving it much thought, I would like to amend that, and believe me, I know I will probably receive lots of negative feedback, and it would just be so much easier for me to just hit the delete button & not take any heat however, I feel this message is important enough that if just one person understands it, it's worth me taking the risk. So here goes my disclaimer, I DO NOT, NOR HAVE I EVER, NOR WOULD I EVER CONDONE ANIMAL ABUSE. That being said, it's easy to love dogs and all animals because they're such cute, furry, cuddly bundles of love, what's not to love?! 🤷 It's EASY to love the "loveable". What's HARD is loving the UNlovable. That's the really hard part. Having empathy & showing compassion for the worst of the worst of us. I imagine that when God sees how we (humans) treat one another, He probably feels towards us much the way we (animal lovers,) feel towards people who abuse & neglect animals. We get ANGRY. But God says He is "slow to anger" (whew! thank God for that!) We like to say, "We (humans) don't deserve dogs" (true!) But what we're REALLY undeserving of is God's love for us. I'm not saying we have to love bad people, but we kind of have to have enough love in our heart to pray for them,. and even to pity them and have compassion. Besides the 10 Commandments, Jesus gave an 11th Commandment that He said was most important: "Love ye one another". If we believe that, and strive to be more like Him, then we must love everyone,. even the UNlovable people😢
There will be such a time, it will be when Jesus rules and reigns "The wolf will dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid, and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together will be led by a little child ..... They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord." The Holy Bible. Isaiah Chapter 11.
A lot of people who come on these vids and feel all warm inside don't realize that they contribute to the atrocious suffering of millions of these pigs by eating factory farmed bacon and ham...

You can be a hero to so many animals such as Champ, by simply going vegan! Stop paying others to breed your slaves, torture them throughout their short lives and then kill them for your plate. Vegan diet is healthy and better for the environment too. A truly win-win-win situation!
@TheUnDrunkPCBastard _ Is taste worth all these animal suffering? Baby pigs are usually born with 8 baby teeth, all forcefully removed without anesthesia. So are their genitals and tails - all without anesthesia. This is standard practice. Why? Because they all go crazy in tight confinement, and would rather chew themselves or others to death.
@behind you Pigs are very smart and protective of their families. If somebody would hunt your family or simply come to your house/land and sometimes harass your family, you may want to put a big hole in that person's stomach too, wouldn't you?
as someone who is studying in the veterinary field i know how expensive it is for all those treatments bless their soul for giving this guy a chance to live a happy healthy life
We paid $6,000 for our cat when he was hospitalized for a week. I can't even imagine how much 4 months cost for a pig! They're all worth every cent though.
You guys literally saved this guys life from ending up on someone's dinner plate! I don't eat pork! Thank you for saving his life!! You are good people

I'm a meat eater, but I think the treatment of factory farm animals is disgusting. They should get a peaceful life & death. Why do people who consume meat, get so triggered by differing opinions/diets?

And there is much more toxic vegans
The music when people are singing, "oh, oh, oh, oh," at the end and seeing the pigs running free makes me full out sob with joy for them. It just kills ya.
@ Jayne Aikens I got u! Thumbs me up as well! On all my comments.. We seem to have some "blood thirsty humans" who don't care if Champ or the Others escaped a Horrific Death, till death is at THEIR door! TRUTH! 💜💞 Thanks
Bless these people for rescuing these animals. Champ is especially lucky. I couldn’t help notice during the rescue there was a cow neck deep in water. Hope it’s ok to. Thank you.
Sooooo many people let their animals drown in these hurricanes because it's more economical to take the tax deduction rather than spend the money to move them to safety. It's so sad.
@@keely_cn8924 They are just dollar signs and product to those farmers, not even living beings. I love these rescue stories because it's like the animals won.
@ Feline Luvr yes I noticed it too, and i BELIEVE it was rescued as well. I'd like to know 😰😮😮😮 Poor Moo Moo Cow! Wonder if we can find out by the Pinned author?
What is truly AMAZING is these magnificent animals despite being tortured and being exploited in horrible ways by humans they forgive easily and in their gratitude for being looked after so well they love unconditionally !
All of these people in this video are friggin awesome. Those sweet folks who rescued Champ are salt of the earth - the kind of folks you want as neighbors and friends. And the people at UT. So much love for animals. Wonderful stuff.
Pigs are one of the only animals I've never had that I would if I could. They're so personable but I wouldn't keep one without a nice farm like these guys have. I knew someone who kept a pig in an apartment and the pig was nice but I always wondered where he went to roam besides going for walks in the city
Yeah I really want a pig one day, but aside from my HOA not allowing it obviously, I would need yard space for the fella. Pigs aren't like cats, they need space to roam and play. Keeping a pig in an apartment just isn't right...
They dont need a ton of room but they need a place to root. My pig roots for hours on end. I have a small yard which is plenty for richard. But aside from his rooting, he does get to go for daily walks too.
@@CosmicPotato EXACTLY, and they get MUCH bigger than young Champ is, in this vid. There ARE no such things as "miniature pigs" as many trusting U.S. people were sold, a few years back, having been told, &, believing, that the piglets, would not grow big, & remain smaller, unfortunately, especially for the once, briefly trendy, craze of the pet "Miniature" Vietnamese Pot-bellied pigs, that grew, of course, to a normal, WAY beyond "miniature" size, only to, overwhelmingly, be, consequently, eventually surrendered, sold off, to God knows who, for barbecues(?), or, perhaps, euthanized, sadly... 😕😟😤😩🐷🐖🐽💕
I want to thank you for being there for Champ. I myself have a prosthetic left foot.I know that it's hard to overcome the loss, but it can be done. Your truly amazing and I am very happy with Champs recovery as well.
The welcome home cake; one of my favourite moments of this video! He's such a lucky pig to have a second chance at life and with a family who actually knows how to take care of him.
That hurricane may have actually saved his life. I mean, the previous owner was likely raising him for the slaughter house and this family turned his fate around.
A Simpson same! Now I want a pig! Lol- I have five guinea pigs- so I mean, would adding more animals really be bad if I can give them a good life? I also have a border collie... I just need a whole farm.
Everyone in this story is so loving and kind. Champ is the happiest guy, seeing him get snuggled up in his sleeping bag was so darn cute. Thanks to all the people who care about animals like these people do!
I was so amazed by this couple. They are one of a kind. I wish that there’d be more people like them who’d go to great lengths for animals in need. God bless them abundantly.
My aunt is a horse vet in North Carolina and I remember her mobilizing during hurricanes to help rescue hogs from the floods. I'm so happy that Champ got rescued and got a nice home to live out his days with his buddies.
plaster wrap pig leg, fill wrap with plaster, shape plaster leg into smooth surfaces, warp plastic, vacuum seal plastic over smoothed plaster leg, remove plastic cut and shape into desired brace shape, attach to pig.
Love your comment - now l'm gonna use BING BANG BOOM for an instant fix. l normally say 'Bish Bash Bosh and there ya go.' Wasn't that 'plasterer' a genius? 💖 AND he kissed Champ 😘 🐷
Some people just have beautiful souls. And these people are just good. Thank you for taking care of these lost animals. Soo sad we factory farm these animals. I don’t think any want to know what happens in those😔 horrible places.
4:33 trust me, he remembered you. They can remember things very very well. Pigs are extremely underestimated, its hard to describe until you own one as a pet.
They are not convenient for a pet . They'll grow up to be 3-400 pounds , and they'll eat so much, your paycheck will go to feed it ! Also they make a large amount of manure . So you can't keep it in your one bedroom apartment. When I was growing up in Hungary , we always had a pig or two . They were cut down just before Xmas every year. My dad would make smoked sausage and smoked ham . The meat was put in the freezer, the lard was collected, my mom used to cook with it . We also had bacon and eggs for breakfast every Saturday, and schnitzel with fries on most Sundays! The pigs were essential to supplement our diet......what can I say , we eat the pig from head to toe. No part of it went to waist
@@tiborpurzsas2136 this is only true for meat pigs and hogs. Vietnamese Potbelly, American Guinea Hog, Kune Kune, Juliana to name a few grow to be 100-200 pounds tops. Mine are 150 and 120...
Wow. That prosthetic guy is AMAZING!! And kudos to this couple for all the good in this world they are doing. All three of these people are awesome. 😃 Great mural; great art!! 😃 🙂 😺
May we all return to the love that we are. Your love and compassion warms the heart. These beautiful beings are reflecting it back. We are not apart from nature. We are part of nature. Sending you all love from South Africa. Xxxxx
@Donna E Thanks so much Donna. Your words mean a lot to me I just got off the phone with an old friend who accused me of being too judgmental when I told her that I have a hard time with people who continue to eat animals while knowing how they are tortured and killed.
@Donna E Thank you for your kind and true words. I have been vegan for 4 years now. Ever since I saw what goes on in slaughterhouses and factory farms. No I will never apologize for my decision. Just wish I'd made it sooner!!
@@kellybelanger5836 I did get the shits once after I dated a Mexican....kissed her and then figured out she was hooked on Corona beer. Coincidence....i think not!!
It really warms your heart to see how happy Champ and the others are to be loved and cared for. To think they never touched grass or played outside and most likely would have died or been slaughtered just hurts to know. St Francis is proud of you
C E it is, but it’s not necessary for most developed countries. We’re in a place where we can make more conscious decisions in our daily lives in how we want our systems to operate. Some places in the world don’t have access to bounties of food and I completely understand why they eat meat, but a lot of places are able to eat healthy and plant based without having to harm animals. Our infrastructure and overcrowding has already made a major toll on our ecosystems. Eating meat just makes it worse. Plus I’d rather safe a life than eat meat. I’m a great cook, so I don’t miss it at all :)
I absolutely adore this couple, champ and family! Bravo! It is beautiful to see pigs happy and living free as they should be and so heartwarming to see him spoiled with his sleeping bags and condo. I cannot give those two beautiful humans enough props, what wonderful souls they have and so happy those pigs found them n vice versa!
This made me cry. Look at that personality he has! These aren’t mindless animals. They have feelings. I’m so happy they rescued him!

Yes they are, really good fine folks!
Love and $$$$$$
Please remember: pigs are much, much smarter than dogs and train near instantly! They can be house broken and litter box trained! They can be very clean animals and have tons and tons of personalities!
Also remember to NEVER buy animals from a breeder. Always adopt a rescued animal.... and never eat ANY animals
@@dragonskylords9032 are you stupid, you act like humans, can't eat meat, they're gonna eat meat. If the animals in the wild can eat meat and it's not insane or cruel, then how come we can't eat meat?
@@blvvdy.kisses Well, you're the one jumping right to insults & name calling, because you disagree with someone else's statement, so maybe you're the one with the issue. I'm a meat eater, but I think the treatment of factory farm animals is disgusting. They should get a peaceful life & death. Why do people who consume meat, get so triggered by differing opinions/diets?
@@isitoveryet9525 jumping to conclusions huh more like your the one I only eat cruelty free meat unless I'm at a restaurant I've seen what they do to animals it's sad but do I agree with not eating meat no it's stupid it's a great source of protein so don't bring up factory meat because I rarely eat it your the one assuming. And there is much more toxic vegans
slimeandmore maiden lol, wild animals don’t do factory farming.
These people are a gift to this world.
OHHH... CHAMP IS SO SWEET!!! HE'S A SURVIVOR!!! THANK YOU TWO FOR TAKING SUCH OUTSTANDING CARE OF CHAMP!!! GOOD PEOPLE!!!
In car "We're going to get our boy! We're going to get Champ! Who's ready? Who's ready?" --Pans to goats in the back seat-- Lol
This part made me laugh so hard
Thought it was going to be kids, human kids!
Gotta take the kids everywhere you go 🤷🏼♀️😂
Danella Cullen 😭😭😂😂😂
Lol
The music when people are singing, "oh, oh, oh, oh," at the end and seeing the pigs running free makes me full out sob with joy for them. It just kills ya.
all pigs and all animals deserve this much love and respect!!!
And humans deserve baconnnn!!!!!!
@TheUnDrunkPCBastard _ So they require plants and fire to be edible? Um. Would you look at that.
Phantom tgm 522 We don’t even deserve to be on this planet. The human race is litterally raping the earth
Yes but in nature they'd still be eaten
@@bakoe7604 HEYY againnn
Only thing I wish is that this couple prosper even more. The world needs more people like you guys.
They’re actually PROSPERING
I cried through most of this video - I wish all pigs could have what Champ ended up with. Bless you wonderful people.
Bless his little piggy heart 💓 sweet baby
@ Jayne Aikens I got u! Thumbs me up as well! On all my comments.. We seem to have some "blood thirsty humans" who don't care if Champ or the Others escaped a Horrific Death, till death is at THEIR door! TRUTH! 💜💞 Thanks
All life has meaning
When a pig's room is cleaner than my room...
He's a pigfectionist, we can learn from this cutie
erkheth 🤣
Lol that might be true but it won't be for long. The pigs will have it nice and dirty in no time. 🙂🙂
Hahaaha
Right...I'm lookin at my room like damn its worse than an actual pigs pen.
Champ is a blessing and every single person who made Champ's healing possible are the real MVP.
Bless the rescuers. Especially this couple.
no
Bless these people for rescuing these animals. Champ is especially lucky. I couldn’t help notice during the rescue there was a cow neck deep in water. Hope it’s ok to. Thank you.
Sooooo many people let their animals drown in these hurricanes because it's more economical to take the tax deduction rather than spend the money to move them to safety. It's so sad.
@@keely_cn8924 They are just dollar signs and product to those farmers, not even living beings. I love these rescue stories because it's like the animals won.
@@keely_cn8924 That breaks my heart to think about. Are you speculating or is that something you know to be true?
@ Feline Luvr yes I noticed it too, and i BELIEVE it was rescued as well. I'd like to know 😰😮😮😮 Poor Moo Moo Cow! Wonder if we can find out by the Pinned author?
I hope he was rescued. All I can think about all through the video
What is truly AMAZING is these magnificent animals despite being tortured and being exploited in horrible ways by humans they forgive easily and in their gratitude for being looked after so well they love unconditionally !
I know. We don’t deserve it. Their capacity to forgive and trust people is truly humbling.
All of these people in this video are friggin awesome. Those sweet folks who rescued Champ are salt of the earth - the kind of folks you want as neighbors and friends. And the people at UT. So much love for animals. Wonderful stuff.
I love how they treat him like he’s a lil puppy🤩
and that pig acts like a puppy.
@@AnnemieM They all act like puppies and dogs if given the chance. Domestic pigs are actually more intelligent than dogs (domestic or wild dogs)!
All animals can probably act like a puppy, my bunny does. Comes when called, loves antics and being silly, plays with you. Cute af
u should see cows as well!!!
Pigs are one of the only animals I've never had that I would if I could. They're so personable but I wouldn't keep one without a nice farm like these guys have. I knew someone who kept a pig in an apartment and the pig was nice but I always wondered where he went to roam besides going for walks in the city
Yeah I really want a pig one day, but aside from my HOA not allowing it obviously, I would need yard space for the fella. Pigs aren't like cats, they need space to roam and play. Keeping a pig in an apartment just isn't right...
They dont need a ton of room but they need a place to root. My pig roots for hours on end. I have a small yard which is plenty for richard. But aside from his rooting, he does get to go for daily walks too.
@@CosmicPotato EXACTLY, and they get MUCH bigger than young Champ is, in this vid. There ARE no such things as "miniature pigs" as many trusting U.S. people were sold, a few years back, having been told, &, believing, that the piglets, would not grow big, & remain smaller, unfortunately, especially for the once, briefly trendy, craze of the pet "Miniature" Vietnamese Pot-bellied pigs, that grew, of course, to a normal, WAY beyond "miniature" size, only to, overwhelmingly, be, consequently, eventually surrendered, sold off, to God knows who, for barbecues(?), or, perhaps, euthanized, sadly...
😕😟😤😩🐷🐖🐽💕
@@Theorist9 "Richard," LOL, soooo distinguished, AND, cute‼️
😍😘🐖🐷🐽💕
I love your pig's name... RICHARD ... My Pig's name is BUTTERS...
"I kinda want to move in with him" + the look on the man's face priceless lol
I want to thank you for being there for Champ. I myself have a prosthetic left foot.I know that it's hard to overcome the loss, but it can be done. Your truly amazing and I am very happy with Champs recovery as well.
PLEASE DEAR GOD BLESS THIS FAMILY. THEIR LOVE AND DEDICATION IS AWESOME ! ! !
Pigs and people who rescue pigs - two of my favorite species!
The welcome home cake; one of my favourite moments of this video! He's such a lucky pig to have a second chance at life and with a family who actually knows how to take care of him.
Wow, Champ is definitely living in HOG HEAVEN. God bless the couple who rescue these animals, they really are Hero's. Thank you for what you do!
thanks for taking care of Champ and literally saving his life, pigs are so intelligent and sweet and this one is blessed!!
That hurricane may have actually saved his life. I mean, the previous owner was likely raising him for the slaughter house and this family turned his fate around.
There is no doubt he was about to have a horrible death at the slaughterhouse, this was a miracle for him
@Panzer Blitz hahaha I'll enjoy my steak, please, and also no one cares, we're not the ones killing the animals we need to eat.
😝😜😛👎👎👎👎👎
Exactly 😭
Good point!
Who knew I’d watch a 13 minute pig video!? But it was worth it. Best video of the day ❤️
A Simpson same! Now I want a pig! Lol- I have five guinea pigs- so I mean, would adding more animals really be bad if I can give them a good life? I also have a border collie... I just need a whole farm.
I wish showing this video to school children was mandatory! There are tons of lessons to be learned from it. It's just amazing in so many ways! ❤️
The connection between animal and human can be truly wonderful - if we only let it. Great video!
Awwwww the tucking him in!! My heart is smiling! Goodness is out there...
Bless this family for saving Champ and his siblings and for giving them a life they’d never have dreamed of. Love and kindness exists. 💕
Everyone in this story is so loving and kind. Champ is the happiest guy, seeing him get snuggled up in his sleeping bag was so darn cute. Thanks to all the people who care about animals like these people do!
That wonderful lady who rubbed noses with champ melted my heart.
Other pigs "I wish my leg also broke" so I could get that special treatment as Champ". You all have a seat in heaven it's booked!!
I was so amazed by this couple. They are one of a kind. I wish that there’d be more people like them who’d go to great lengths for animals in need. God bless them abundantly.
13 mins and 4 secs of pure joy. Thank you
*ad plays*
😂
Pigs are sentient beings like all mammals. They are emotional and card about their families. Thank you for shining a light on these loving babies
My aunt is a horse vet in North Carolina and I remember her mobilizing during hurricanes to help rescue hogs from the floods.
I'm so happy that Champ got rescued and got a nice home to live out his days with his buddies.
The way he greeted them when they picked him up from hospital 💙💙💙
You two are my newest heroes. This is how every pig should live, being loved and loving back.
That's the only pig in a blanket that should be! This is one of my favorite feel-good stories :)
The way that guy made that brace like bing bang boom was god damn incredible.
How do some ppl just do dat?🤔
plaster wrap pig leg, fill wrap with plaster, shape plaster leg into smooth surfaces, warp plastic, vacuum seal plastic over smoothed plaster leg, remove plastic cut and shape into desired brace shape, attach to pig.
Love your comment - now l'm gonna use BING BANG BOOM for an instant fix.
l normally say 'Bish Bash Bosh and there ya go.'
Wasn't that 'plasterer' a genius? 💖 AND he kissed Champ 😘 🐷
Some people just have beautiful souls. And these people are just good. Thank you for taking care of these lost animals. Soo sad we factory farm these animals. I don’t think any want to know what happens in those😔 horrible places.
4:33 trust me, he remembered you. They can remember things very very well. Pigs are extremely underestimated, its hard to describe until you own one as a pet.
Yes. It's said they're smarter than dogs
@@farfallinaazzurra5318 they are for sure. Both of mine are more emotional too.
@@RandoWisLuL ❣️❣️❣️❣️😘😘😘😘😘😘
They are not convenient for a pet . They'll grow up to be 3-400 pounds , and they'll eat so much, your paycheck will go to feed it ! Also they make a large amount of manure . So you can't keep it in your one bedroom apartment. When I was growing up in Hungary , we always had a pig or two . They were cut down just before Xmas every year. My dad would make smoked sausage and smoked ham . The meat was put in the freezer, the lard was collected, my mom used to cook with it . We also had bacon and eggs for breakfast every Saturday, and schnitzel with fries on most Sundays! The pigs were essential to supplement our diet......what can I say , we eat the pig from head to toe. No part of it went to waist
@@tiborpurzsas2136 this is only true for meat pigs and hogs. Vietnamese Potbelly, American Guinea Hog, Kune Kune, Juliana to name a few grow to be 100-200 pounds tops. Mine are 150 and 120...
Wow. That prosthetic guy is AMAZING!! And kudos to this couple for all the good in this world they are doing. All three of these people are awesome. 😃
Great mural; great art!! 😃 🙂 😺
Derrick Campana has a show on Animal Planet, The Wizard of Paws. He helps lots of animals with prosthetics.
Wonderful. These people are saints.
moebees Saints? No such thing. Wonderful people? Absolutely! It would be great if more people treated animals with the respect they deserve.
Its amazing to see people go out of their way to do the very best they can for their animals.
The perfect couple, living the perfect life.
May we all return to the love that we are. Your love and compassion warms the heart. These beautiful beings are reflecting it back.
We are not apart from nature. We are part of nature.
Sending you all love from South Africa.
Xxxxx
Found written in spider web above his pen:
SOME PIG
TERRIFFIC
Omgggg Charlottes web😂😂😂 I loved that book
You are angels. Champ is one blessed Piggy. God bless you for rescuing him.
These people are my heroes.... And clearly Champ's. 💕
I’m so glad that you guys found him and helped him recover
You gotta love this couple for loving Champ and all the other animals.
Made my day.
What a beautiful soul. I wish all animals could live like this!💖💖💖
Amen
I've been trying for the last year or so to go vegan, it's been tough, but after seeing this Pork is now 100% off the menu for the household.
Thank you!!!
@Donna E Thanks so much Donna. Your words mean a lot to me I just got off the phone with an old friend who accused me of being too judgmental when I told her that I have a hard time with people who continue to eat animals while knowing how they are tortured and killed.
Great decision Dude , I ve been vegan all my life
@Donna E Thank you for your kind and true words. I have been vegan for 4 years now. Ever since I saw what goes on in slaughterhouses and factory farms. No I will never apologize for my decision. Just wish I'd made it sooner!!
good , more for the rest of us !
These people are adorably eccentric! We need more of these kind of folks!
Wow, that pig gets more love, healthcare and a better life than I will ever have!!
Your Momma!!!
Sorry, I got nothing else....I am actually eating bacon right now LOL
@@kellybelanger5836 I did get the shits once after I dated a Mexican....kissed her and then figured out she was hooked on Corona beer.
Coincidence....i think not!!
That's actually sad...
@@bushman9315 , if you think it is funny, you are emotionally out of touch
I hope you too get the best life you deserve...
'...do pig stuff...' I love it!
You guys are the best! Wouldn't mind being a pig on your farm.
But....but....you're a cow🍔
This makes me so happy! Really can't understand why people treating animals so cruel or for meat.
It really warms your heart to see how happy Champ and the others are to be loved and cared for. To think they never touched grass or played outside and most likely would have died or been slaughtered just hurts to know. St Francis is proud of you
I just feel very bad for those pigs in the meat factory's.
Why? They get to be tasty bacon!
@@fullup91 It's important that the animals for slaughter be treated humanely. It's not funny.
@@laurawilloughby4000 you're right. I was just joking
Rembrandt that’s really awesome you could stop and admit that. Most wouldn’t!
C E it is, but it’s not necessary for most developed countries. We’re in a place where we can make more conscious decisions in our daily lives in how we want our systems to operate. Some places in the world don’t have access to bounties of food and I completely understand why they eat meat, but a lot of places are able to eat healthy and plant based without having to harm animals. Our infrastructure and overcrowding has already made a major toll on our ecosystems. Eating meat just makes it worse. Plus I’d rather safe a life than eat meat. I’m a great cook, so I don’t miss it at all :)
I enjoyed every second of this video. I'm so happy he has a family.
I like how they point out that it's "pig safe paint" as if these people would put this pig in any danger lol
you are fiine.
I love humans who take the time and have the heart to detox a pig's system. That's caring.
Its not detoxifying.. Its feeding, kidneys do the detoxifying according to science.
I'm CRYING right now!
God Bless this beautiful couple & all of their animals! !❤
I love how they made him his own 🏠 ❤️
I wish everyone would love living beings as these two.
Are these not just the sweetest most genuine , caring people?? Wowza!
This would make a great Disney movie the pig that survival the storm because of some good old Country folks!
Too bad Disney is a pedophile though. Most Disney movies are filled with hidden msgs.
And first of all he survived the animal farming!
OMG - I want to hug these people.
I absolutely adore this couple, champ and family! Bravo! It is beautiful to see pigs happy and living free as they should be and so heartwarming to see him spoiled with his sleeping bags and condo. I cannot give those two beautiful humans enough props, what wonderful souls they have and so happy those pigs found them n vice versa!
I am fortunate to live with these kind of people at same time on earth.
