Hedge of Alaska

Hedge of Alaska, African pygmy hedgehogs, Anchorage, AK, operates in the southcentral region of Alaska. Founded by Wendy Caldwell, the breeder brings more than six years of experience caring for these small mammals from birth through adoption.

Each hedgehog lives in a temperature controlled habitat with bedding that meets industry standards, daily enrichment and varied textures to support natural behaviors. Regular handling, gentle introductions and socialization sessions help them settle into new homes with ease. Visitors often note clear communication on feeding schedules and gentle handling techniques, which reflect a thoughtful approach to animal welfare.

Prospective owners receive detailed care guides covering nutrition, enclosure setup, environmental enrichment and common health concerns. Post-placement support includes follow-up consultations to ease the transition, troubleshoot concerns and ensure each hedgehog thrives. The facility maintains a strict routine for cleaning and sanitization to support hedgehog health.
