Two GOS entire boars need a home
« on: January 08, 2013, 09:22:25 pm »
Sadly last summer two GOS boars living in a heritage park in North Wales were brutally attacked by a group of yobs. The attack was so brutal and one of the pigs was knocked unconscious :-( I was so pleased to hear that they will now not going to be going for meat. Their owner who now has them at her farm wants them to find a nice home after their ordeal. They are incredibly friendly, entire, around a year old and come from a very good blood line so would be good for breeding. Can anyone help find these boys a forever home? Jo is happy to provide transport and can be contacted on 07809 775078 thank you.

If they are pedigree and to breed standard have you tried the GOS website or contact the club who may be able to put something in their magazine about them. mail@oldspots.org.uk
Hope you find homes for them.
