DillyBridge is my dream and we are working very hard to make it happen. It is primarily a home for retired, unwanted and problem piggies to live out the rest of their years. However we do take babies, orphans and pregnant sows so we do sometimes have piggies available to the right homes. I have a few of very helpful and dedicated friends who help out when needed even just to listen to my dilemmas. We also have portable grazing pens and one of the perks is to use our little mobile grass cutters weather permitting. I have several years experience in animal care includimg manager of quarantine kennels and kitten fostering for the RSPCA. My current pictures are of my free range sows as my boar shed is not finished yet and the quarantine unit is not in situ. However my house always seems to have at least 1 indoor cage with residents. I aim to continue to research and provide a safe enviroment designed to echo their natural enviroment. Visitors welcome with prior notice, children on Saturdays for help with grooming, cleaning handling etc. Thank you for reading.

Oh good luck that does sound fantastic! Your pics are great! Good luck with it! x
 
Thats a wonderful idea. I've just seen the photos too - just don't show them to any piggies or they might turn delinquent in the vain hope they get rehomed with you.:))
I love the name - can i ask the origins?

I wish I lived nearer, I would love to come and visit. The pictures are super, and what a wonderful place for piggies to live.
 
sounds wonderful but where are the photos? your albumns are empty!
 
That sounds truly wonderful. Well done, and thank you for doing this. It's a lovely alternative to a full working rescue; giving the pigs who need a specialist and totally dedicated home the perfect place to get all the help they need, and to just enjoy the rest of their lives. It sounds beautiful, and the name is so pretty and recognisable.
 
Layla I am in Greenside a small mining village 1 mile outside of Ryton. Out of my back garden ran the old pit rail lines which are known locally as the Dilly line. It is many years since the tracks where removed and it is now just a walk way. As kids we played all our games here and on the dilly bridge 100 yards down. The stones you can see in my play pens are what I carried home when they pulled the bridge down hence DillyBridge Guinea Pigs.
