Welcome to Smith & Agli's Potbelly Manor!
Smith
& Agli's Potbelly Manor is a unique animal rescue serving 68 animals of over 10 species
near the historic village of Wickford on Narragansett Bay.
Audrey Agli and Liz Smith
founded Smith & Agli's Potbelly Manor in 1995, inspired by the rescue of Skipper, an abused pig from the
streets of Providence who was about to be killed.
Ariel, the current queen piggy of the house (pictured above)
visits local schools to teach children about being kind to animals.
Our primary mission of aiding wayward potbelly pigs has evolved to include
many other species, including Bette Davis the cow, Saint Bernard dogs, goats, turkeys, rabbits, a duck and a colony of
feral cats.
In addition to fostering and rehoming animals that pass through our doors we also rehabilitate potbelly pigs and share our expertise with the community. Please enjoy a leisurely visit through our website to learn more about our mission and animals that may currently be available for adoption.

The Pet
Expo is coming-March 6th and 7th!
We're going to need your help to make it a huge success!
This year the wonderful people who run the expo have given us a FABULOUS spot. We are in booth #309, right in front of the TICA cat show!
Please email info@potbellymanor.org or call at 295-4241 if you can help. We hope to bring Princess Ariel too!
We will need people to help set up on Friday 3/5, break down on Sunday 3/7 and man the booth in between.
We will have new tshirts and of course, lots of CANDY to give out (if Audrey and Shane don't eat it all first, ahem)

Our latest rescues-Pearl and a very pregnant 800 lb Paige!
Bonniedale Farm in Glocester, RI harbored many animals of varying species and was closed in December 2009, leaving approx. 100 animals including 8 pigs suddenly homeless and in need of medical care.
We are very glad that we were able to bring Paige and Pearl to safety. Unfortunately Pearl was separated from her 3 babies and we don't know who has them but thankfully they had been weaned.
Speaking of babies, Paige delivered 14 piglets within days of arriving at Potbelly Manor. There were many circumstances working against her and it was feared that the entire litter and Paige as well might die but with the help of several fabulous veterinarians we have 4 healthy miracle piglets.
