Several new youngsters have joined us here at The Haven recently. Geneva kidded a week after Luz in mid-April. Another girl! We named her Catalina. Flora, Dora, and Catalina are all doing well and enjoy playing together. Next, we found a good mate for Pearl. We had to go all the way to North Carolina for him, but he is a great "little" boar. He was almost 5 months old, when we got him in April, and he is growing fast. We named him Alpha (after Alpha Pig, a character in one of Raine's favorite tv shows). Despite being 4 months younger than Pearl and still smaller than she is, he's definitely the boss of the pig pen. Lastly, we acquired a new Great Pyrenees puppy. She was just 8 weeks old, when we got her in May. Athena is adorable and people friendly, but we are trying very hard not to love on her and handle her too much so that her primary attachments won't be with people but rather the animals she will one day protect. She and Xander are getting along well, and hopefully, he will teach her all about being a good guardian. We plan to breed them too someday.
