Does your pig respect you? Is your pig mean, loud, destructive, demanding and bossy? If so, your pig has probably developed spoiled pig syndrome. Why does this happen? It happens when a pig becomes a leader. Pigs live by a very strict  hierarchy. So when it comes to living with any species of family, pigs live by that hierarchy. It is an instinct. 

 

What is spoiled pig syndrome? Spoiled pig syndrome refers to a behavioral problem that comes from a pig that does not respect its humans. It’s a very entitled, and very demanding behavior. What are some signs that your pig has spoiled pig syndrome?

 

  • Biting
  • Charging
  • Warning growels 
  • Snapping
  • Squealing constantly
  • Head swiping
  • Snatching food
  • Failure to move
  • Destruction

 

Can this behavior be changed? ABSOLUTELY! It doesn’t matter how old your pig is, it can be done. How can we change it? I will go through a number of ways to change that behavior. Ultimately we want to become the leader. Spoiled pig syndrome is when the pig becomes the leader. How can we change this behavior?

 

  • Never respond to the actions above
  • Reinforce good behavior
  • Make them work for their food
  • Move the pig
  • Teach your pig obedience skills
