LLAMAS:
Taffy lived in Phoenix and
had given birth to a baby (cria) that had become ill with Valley
Fever. The baby did not survive and when Taffy became pregnant
again, her owners did not want her or her cria to become ill. They
contacted the Foundation and Taffy came to Whispering Hope Ranch
where she gave birth to her second baby, Boots. Taffy also had a
son, Tony, who loves to kiss ranch
visitors. The
llama family also includes Britta a gorgeous black and
white llama who offers hugs to Ranch visitors. 
PIGS:
Petunio, a potbellied pig, was
abandoned by “her” owners and left in a small pen. Human friends fed
and watered her for several weeks but when her pen became
uninhabitable the Foundation was contacted about taking her. After
coming to the ranch she was named Petunia. We have since discovered
that Petunia is a male pig, now called Petunio. He has two
companions Wilbur, a pig
full of tricks, and senior piglet, Stinkerbell, a female,
and newest resident Oreo,
a black and white female whose human family could not keep
her. 
SHEEP:
Black Sheep
and
Smiley are Barbadian sheep
that reside at the ranch. They are quite shy but are becoming more
comfortable
with people as they learn that we are their friends and
caregivers.
