Piglet is an outside pig in need of a new home. His family had asked and been told that he was allowed before they bought the house & moved, but unfortunately, they were lied to and told after they moved that Piglet was considered livestock and they have to rehome him. His family is now looking for a forever home able to take him in. A home that is in need of a buddy for their outdoor pig would be a great fit!
Piglet doesn't really like to be touched or pet by most people, but he is very happy being talked to in a happy voice. He will talk back and wag his tail. He's special to the daughter in the way he grunts and allows affection. She can get in the pen with him and pet him and lay down with him. Otherwise, he runs from everyone else. He's never really been around other animals. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.) Piglet knows "sit" and is on a diet to drop some excess weight.
Transportation is available within 60 miles to the new home.
