Before You Choose a Piglet

It is so important to do your research before deciding to bring a pet pig into your home.  Research will allow you to be informed, prepared and confident in your decision.  More than 75% of piglets are rehomed in the first year of their life.  I love my piglets and I don’t want them to go through the heartache of being rehomed.  Being educated and having reasonable expectations will give each family and piglet the best chances of success.

 

Please take the time to read through the information I have provided.  My goal is to guide you through the process of bringing a piglet into your safe and loving home.


 

Before you decide to bring a piglet home, please read the following questionnaire closely.  Check all the boxes before proceeding.

Thank you for caring enough to make an educated decision on whether to bring a pig into your home.  If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us HERE.
