This pig was dumped on the property. The person living there knows nothing about pigs & the landlord won't allow it to stay. Because it was abandoned, not much is known about it. It seems to do well with children, dogs, & cats. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.)
Transportation is not available, so the adopter will need to make arrangements.
It is assumed this pig is not altered so arrangements should be made to spay or neuter. Intact pigs do not make the best companion animals. Spaying prevents unwanted litters, curbs behavior problems, and prevents uterine tumors. Neutering prevents behavior issues and eliminates that classic boar odor.
