He is not even 6 months yet, dumped off at a shelter just because of this non-stop aggression and hormonal behavior! If you fix your piglet at 8 weeks old, you will never have this problem! They not only make a better pet, it will be almost half the price! We can eliminate so many unwanted pigs if owners will just fix their pigs when they are piglets!
Did you know a Potbelly Pig has the intelligence of a 3 year old?
In considering a pig as a pet, ask yourself, is there such a thing as a "miniature pig" or a "teacup pig"? So many pigpet owners buy a piglet on the "promise" the little baby will grow up to be a teacup mini lap pig. How do you keep a pig small?
The same way you keep a anything small! STARVE IT!
Would you starve your child? If not, please don't buy a pig for it's size!

Is your home ZONED to keep a pigpet?
(Also, check with your HOA as most DO NOT allow any Pig as a Pet!)
Because of various circumstances, these Las Vegas owners are unable to keep their pig. Before you buy a baby piglet, consider adopting a pigpet. There are so many great reasons to adopt! At the top of the list is that you can give a pig a second chance at a forever home. Vegaspigpets' mission is to place each pig with a suitable owner that will love and care for them as much as they give in return! And yes, they can live about 20 years, so please also consider the time commitment!How many animals were euthanized last year where you live?
Rescue, Spay & Neuter!
