Meet Piggy! This adorable boy is an indoor piggy, but he really loves his outside time. Although he has been only an indoor pig, his parents believe he would do better as an outdoor pig with a nice little space and shelter. He seems happier outside and less of a grump when he gets yard time.
Piggy is a bit like a grumpy old man. He groans and gretses. He only really likes the husband and wife in the home. He loves to be rubbed by the parents or the kids, but is not friendly towards outsiders and isn't fond of the 20 yr old son who lives in the house. He's good with the 7-year-old kids, but not other kids, so a child-free home might be better for him. Piggy lives with a dog and they're usually ok, but if the dog is too much, Piggy will go after it and will bite. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.) A dog-free home, or a home where Piggy lives outside and has a pen that dogs do not enter is preferred.
Piggy is neutered, but needs a hoof trim & tusk trim. He's housebroken (goes outside) and crate trained, but the current crate might be too small and his mom suspects it may be causing leg pain for his one leg. He simply needs more space than the home provides. He's unable to become a fully outdoor piggy in the current home, but that is an option if potential adopters would prefer a fully outdoor pig! He could also remain an indoor piggy as long as he gets plenty of outside time. He's crated when inside to prevent destructive behaviors and really needs more outdoor time.
Transportation is available within 80 miles to the new home.
