He’s a little pig with the voice of an angel, and he’s looking for a new home.

Lyle is a two-year-old pig that was taken in by the BC SPCA in September 2016, when he was seized with several other animals as part of a cruelty investigation.

“When Lyle first came into our care, he was extremely fearful and didn’t want to be touched at all,” says Leiki Salumets, BC SPCA farm animal care supervisor.

The SPCA staff at the Good Shepherd Barn in Surrey say that he is a much different pig now, more than a year later.

Not only Lyle’s personality bloomed in his new environment, but his singing talent has as well.

Barn staff and volunteers say that Lyle likes to sing, especially when he hears the voice of his favourite volunteer.

“I’m not sure if he’s opera-ready, but it’s great to see him so much more social and vocalizing so much,” Salumets says.

“Lyle is a sweet and gentle fellow just looking for someone to fall in love with him and offer him a home where he will be doted on. He’s an awesome pig!”
