The Arizona Humane Society rescued Timon the chihuahua and Pumbaa the pig, who were unlikely best friends. The animals were rescued when their previous owner was arrested, and the AHS decided to find them a new home. They contacted Better Piggies Rescue, who agreed to take in the pair. Pumbaa received medical care and bonded with the resident pigs at the sanctuary. Better Piggies Rescue plans to make Pumbaa a permanent ambassador, and Timon is working on becoming a sanctuary dog. Better Piggies Rescue is one of the few pig sanctuaries in Arizona.
