Brixen
Since Brixen entered sanctuary here at Santuario de Karuna, this bundle of joy has touched so many hearts with his sweet kisses and gentle nudges for a tummy rub.
While enjoying a vegan sampling of deliciousness at Brixen’s, we received a call from an older gentleman stating that his daughter had taken custody of a potbelly pig from a terrible situation.
His daughter, having no place to keep this sweet guy, gave the little black pig, Munster, to her father.
After having Munster for several months, he realized that Munster was in danger, as his dogs were very aggressive towards Munster. He was also concerned that the little Igloo that Munster was sleeping in was not an adequate shelter for his piggy needs.
We agreed to offer Munster sanctuary ~ packing up our lunch, we headed to pick up this little guy.
Upon arriving, it was clear that the gentlemen had made his loving decision in the best interest of Munster.
We loaded Munster into the Jeep and began to drive away, the man yelled out Mija ~ Mija! I stopped the Jeep and the man approached us crying ~ he wanted one last goodbye and to give us Munster’s food.
As we were driving to the sanctuary ~ we decided to gift Munster a new name ~ We welcome Brixen.
After getting Brixen all settled in, I remembered the food the man had sent for Brixen. There was a half a bag of all stock pellets. Inside the bag was a can of green beans, a can of corn and some Cheerios.
Seeing the rations the man had sent made me cry ~ he was doing his best. Even though this diet was not what Munster needed ~ I could feel the love. He knew that Munster needed veggies in his diet and the little Cheerio treats showed me that he was spending time with Munster.
Brixen now lives with his roommate, Jenny~Sue & loves getting belly rubs, playing in mud holes & catching snow! He is living his best life now ❤️
