Emma Sue takes in a fun summer afternoon, frolicking among the mud and grass with Chester, Joy, and Tibit at the Pigs Peace Sanctuary in Stanwood, Wash. Founded in 1994, the non-profit organization has welcomed pigs, ponies, horses, llamas, dogs, cats, chickens, sheep and turkey. Primarily built to provide "medical care, a healthy diet, socialization and a permanent home with loving kindness" to the animals, its founder, Judy, clearly has as much fun as her barnyard animals when it comes to downtime, equipped with a camcorder to capture all the sweet oink-a-licious action. We just adore the little pink piglet.
