- Gizmo, Bentley, come on.
It's time to eat.
Are you hungry, Bentley?
- The thing I like most about my life right now
is having my two pet pigs,
Gizmo and Bentley.
- Here you go.
Come on.
- They're like my brothers more than my pets.
- They are definitely like having two
little toddlers in the house full time.
- Yeah. Come on.
- [grunt] - Yeah. Come on.
- [grunt] - Yeah. You're sleepy, baby.
The first pig to join our family was Gizmo.
And at that time, Miley was almost 8 1/2.
- Gizmo was very excited to get to know me.
I wanted to protect Gizmo,
because I wanted him to feel safe with us,
and not scared.
- Gizmo's not very trusting with anyone else
but Miley.
They're very loving together.
Bentley wasn't like Gizmo.
He didn't accept her at first.
We got Bentley as a rescue.
He initially came from a breeder,
went to someone
that decided that they no longer wanted a pig.
Miley was like, "Mom, we need to get him.
He just needs somebody that's going to love him."
- When we got Bentley,
he did not trust anybody.
- He was always afraid that we were gonna leave him.
He wouldn't let us touch him.
It took a lot of nights
that she would sleep with him on the floor
to gain his trust,
and she was very patient with him.
- It took about a year for me
to get his trust finally.
- I don't think any other kid probably would have been
able to do that. They probably would have just
gave up at the beginning.
- There you go.
- Miley's developed such a bond with him,
and has brought him out of his shell.
- Good boy, Bentley.
- [grunt] - Good boy.
- Bentley and Miley, they love
to go on adventures together.
- Me and Bentley really like to take hikes together.
I think Bentley likes when we have walks,
so then he has the fresh air and
he can spend time with me.
Gizmo doesn't really like going on hikes,
so it's just me and Bentley.
- Gizmo's a homebody.
He likes to stay home.
- All right, Giz. Time to get ready for bed, okay?
- [grunt] - Time to get up.
Time to get up, buddy. - [grunt]
- [grunt] - Come on.
- You need to get up. - [grunts]
- [grunt]
- Good night, Giz.
Good night, Bentley.
Good night.
Today I'm bringing Gizmo and Bentley
to my school for show and tell.
I'm giving a presentation to my classmates
to educate them on pigs.
- Gizmo, blue.
Good boy!
I've been working on this presentation
for about three weeks,
and I've been practicing every day.
- The blue one.
No, that's green.
- I think Gizmo and Bentley
are gonna do good at the school today.
Um, just a little nervous,
because I don't want them to act up
and like they don't know anything.
- Okay. Which one has almonds?
Good boy.
- I think the pigs are gonna be a little nervous.
But I think they're going to do great.
- Okay. Come on, let's go say bye to Miley.
- It's okay. - [grunt]
- Bye, guys!
See you at school.
- Bye. - Bye.
- Have a good day at school.
Bentley.
You gotta be ready for anything with these guys.
They're just like little kids.
- Hey. - Hi, Gizmo. Hi, Mom. - Hey.
- Come on, Giz.
- Good boy.
- Bentley, you really excited? I am.
Don't act up, okay? You know what to do.
- [grunts]
- Miley, who are your guests?
- My guests are Bentley and Gizmo.
[grunt]
- It felt really good to know that
Gizmo and Bentley were not scared of the classroom
and were just ready to go in it.
I get a lotta questions from a lotta people,
and they always say,
"Well, aren't they not smart?"
They're more smarter than dogs and cats.
They're actually the fifth-smartest animal in the world.
Does anybody want to see any tricks?
- Yeah!
- Gizmo. Circles.
Boy. Sit.
Sit.
Good job, Gizmo.
Does anybody want to volunteer?
Gizmo. Get the green one.
The green.
Good boy.
- My classmates were listening
and thought the pigs were really cool.
It made me feel really good.
- Do you like pigs the most?
- To be honest, I actually do like 'em more than dogs and cats,
because they are full of energy,
we always play outside,
we go on walks together.
Our bond is very, very close.
They are like my best friends,
and probably more my best friends, like my brothers.
[applause]
- I really didn't want to stop,
because I thought it was really fun
to show my pigs to my classmates.
Everyone got a turn at the end
to give them a snack and pet them.
Gizmo and Bentley really liked it,
'cause they had a lot of snacks.
- Okay, ready? One, two, three...
Bentley and Gizmo! - Bentley and Gizmo!
- I think the presentation went very well.
I think all the kids enjoyed Gizmo and Bentley.
- I think you guys did a really good job.
Okay. Are you guys ready to go home?
Did you like show and tell, Bentley? Huh?
Gizmo! Did you have a good time?
- [grunt]
I'm very proud.
- So you think it went pretty good, Miley?
- When I see Miley, Gizmo, and Bentley together,
I feel blessed that they have such a strong bond.
They've all come from three different worlds,
but they trust her.
They really do look at her
as a sibling.
- It makes me feel really good to know that
Gizmo and Bentley are there for me and love me.
When I grow up I want to have a rescue farm
with pigs, and all different kinds of animals.
- Home sweet home, huh?
- She has a heart for all animals,
but Miley's love for Gizmo and Bentley
is unconditional.
