Michelle has a good experience of fostering animals in her farm. That is why she usually gets calls from local farmers who need help taking care of some of their own animals. Once, one of the Michelle’s friends asked her if she could adopt one of the tiny piglets her pig had. Apparently, the mother pig was not too careful, and accidentally sat on one of her newborn babies.Little Piglet

The incident, fortunately, did not result in any major traumas. The piglet, whose name was Chance, had an injury on his leg. When the other piglets started to walk, Chance was not able to do that. Even simply standing was a bit hard for him. Michelle, of course, agreed to take him to her farm and see what she could do.

Chance was the most adorable and friendliest baby ever. He liked cuddles, and also liked to play with the dogs. In the evenings, when she no longer had any energy, she came into the house and liked to lie down on a pillow in front of the fireplace, and relax.

At first, Michelle was very worried. The piglet weighted only ten pounds and already had hard time standing. What was gonna happen if she gained some weight? And she was still going to gain a lot of weight! Michelle did not give up on Chance. She wanted him to move as much as he could, even though it was hard for him, to strengthen those muscles. She also took him the the vet center, where he was trained by professionals.

But little Chance was a lot more stubborn than Michelle thought. He took every chance to walk and run. And as a result, he overcame his injury. One day, Michelle saw him walking up the stairs. That was when she realized everything was going to be alright with the piglet. Now, Chance is already older, and a lot bigger in size. And luckily, his leg is completely fine.
