Past Events
Canadian Pet Expo in Toronto - Fall 2015Tango, Elsa, and Maximus enjoyed their time at The Canadian Pet Expo in the fall of 2015! We met lots of great friends and got to help bring proper education and awareness to mini pigs as pets!
This was Tango's second year at the Expo and he acted like a pro! He was eager to greet new people, model his custom made harness from ThisLittlePetShop.com, and even he provided some reassurance to Elsa on her Expo debut. What a good pig! Max won over all the ladies and adored having so much attention on him throughout the weekend! |
Charlotte - Our TV StarOur little blue eyed Charlotte has proven herself to be a social and entertaining girl!
Her fame started when she was a baby during her first television appearance on the Steven and Chris show in Toronto. She appeared on the show with other piglets but it was her small piglet size that had the crowd oohing and ahhhing! Two years later, she was invited to The Morning Show on Global in Toronto. She sure was the talk of the place! |
Charlotte was fussed over, like the princess she is, from the moment she walked into the building. She spent her time on set socializing with all her new friends! They loved her personality so much! The staff had her walking around the set for the day. They kept calling her their mascot! She had a great time there and was extremely comfortable! Her tail was wagging from the moment she arrived.
After her moment back in the spotlight, Charlotte got to stop at a family member's house for some more royal treatment! She spent her visit sleeping off her hard work on a large comfy blanket in front of the fridge door. She had another hundred pictures taken of her, but that didn't seem to bother this star! She slept through it all.
We would like to send a special thank you to all the staff at The Morning Show on Global, for making Charlotte feel so welcomed and comfortable during her appearance on their show!

Lester B. Pearson High School's Terry Fox Fundraiser - Fall 2013
Charlotte has been invited to join Lester B. Pearson High School for their Terry Fox fundraising event! We are so excited to help them out! All the students have been asked to raise a specific amount of money for this event. The teachers have made this interesting for the students. If the students are able to reach their goal, some of the teachers have offered to shave their heads, shave their legs and one teacher offered to kiss a pig!
We enjoyed our time at Lester B Pearson. Charlotte was greeted by students and teachers as soon as she walked through the door! She had fun getting all her pictures taken. Her tail never stopped wagging! Everyone she met was so kind and gentle with her. She REALLY enjoyed all the snacks. Charlotte was a bit hesitant to enter the gym, with all the students watching her, but with some encouragement and all the friendly voices of the students, her tail was wagging again!!! Charlotte shared a kiss each with two teachers and like the usual Charlotte, she was a pro! She then got to walk around the gym and meet some of the students. This part she really enjoyed. Before we left for the day, she had her photo taken for The Burlington Post! We look forward to seeing that! WHAT A STAR!!!! We would like to say a special thank you to all the staff and students at Lester B Pearson High School. Charlotte was so warmly welcomed from the moment she arrived! We enjoyed our visit and were happy we could make the trip out! |
Orchard Park Secondary School in Stoney Creek - December 2013
Charlotte had a fantastic time at Orchard Park Secondary School, this December 2013!
She got to meet lots of great students as well as the very welcoming Staff! Charlotte was invited to share a kiss with one of the schools teachers, as the students reached their fundraising goal for the Terry Fox Event! WAY TO GO!!!!!
It took us a while to walk Charlotte through the school to the stage. She seemed to want to stop and visit with every person she saw. Eventually she made it to the gym. She went up on stage and shared her kiss! The students went CRAZY with cheers and laughter! It was amazing! She had such a great time!
On her way home we stopped back off at my aunts house and Charlotte spent the rest of her day following around my aunts Shihpoo, Holly. They are best friends! It was a great end to a perfect day!
A very special THANK YOU goes out to Orchard Park Secondary School for their warm welcome to Charlotte and our family! It was a great day for us and we would love to visit again!
