It all started when…

…..Jake brought his lovely girlfriend to Fort Rickey for a healthy, sweet, and fun date. They had a wonderful time together, but the relationship with the young lady did not last. However, Jake made a connection with a special animal here at Fort Rickey when he came that day. He just couldn’t stop thinking about her. Gloria was her name. A sturdy and confident girl, Gloria knew what she wanted. Crackers. Jake enjoyed her squeals and her little skips and hops of delight as she pushed by her pen mates to get to him and only him! After she was satisfied with her treats, she rolled onto her back and enjoyed the gentle belly rubs Jake gave her. Jake wanted to spend more time with Gloria, but life and all it’s busyness made it hard. Instead he sought out another way to stay connected to Gloria. He became a sponsor! Jake donates $25.00 a month to help meet Gloria’s needs and in return he gets updates, pictures, and sometimes even videos sent right to his phone! Jake and Gloria have a special creature connection that makes life sweet, no matter how many girls friends come and go, Gloria, the Pot Belly Pig will always be Jake’s special girl!
