Wanting to grant her terminally-ill father a very special wish,Holly Butterfield contacted Happy Trails to see if there was a pig who wouldbe able to do a home. Dale Butterfield had always wanted a pet pig, and his wish was to see a pig and have it come visit him. Happy Trails doesn’t have a pig in our Farm Animal Visitation Program, but sanctuary director, Annette Fisher, has a house pig who seemed to fit the bill!  It ends up that not only Truffles the pig went to visit Dale and his family. Natasha the goat, Gershwin the rooster and Kachina the mini horse also made the trek to Fairport Harbor and trotted into the Butterfieldhousehold for a very special visit with Dale. A multitude of family members greeted the Happy Trails volunteers, and Holly was able to happily grant her father’s request. It was a very heartwarming, touching visit, and five days later, Dale passed away. This is the story.
