Burrito was inherited when his mom passed. The home has too many animals and the large dogs in the home do not like pigs and it's difficult to keep them fully separated. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.) Burrito is good with cats and small dogs. He's never been around kids.
Burrito is crate trained and housebroken. He bonds strongly to "his person" and is not super fond of the boyfriend in the home or other people. He loves to sleep in blankets, likes being brushed, and likes belly rubs. The only commands he sort of knows are backup and go potty.
Transportation may be available within an hour or so to the new home.
Burrito is not altered so arrangements must be made to neuter prior to adoption. Intact pigs do not make the best companion animals. Neutering prevents behavior issues and eliminates that classic boar odor.
If you are interested in adopting, please complete the application and mention the name, city, and state of the pig(s) you're interested in: https://www.pigplacementnetwork.org/online-adoption-application/
Qualified homes must 1) be in a zone friendly community, 2) locate a vet that will care for pet pigs, 3) own their home.
Donations to PPN are greatly appreciated so we can continue to help pigs.
