Potbellied pigs are a breed of miniature pig that originated in Southeast Asia. They have
a sway back, straight tail, and are usually found in black, black and white, and solid white.
Potbellied pigs are clean, odorless, and easily housetrained. They are social, affectionate
animals and love belly rubs and scratching. Many people who are allergic to dogs or cats are not
bothered by pig hair (they have no dander) and because of the pig's thick skin, seldom do they
get ticks or fleas. Their diet should consist of a good quality potbellied pig chow, healthy
snacks (fruits and vegetables), and a plentiful supply of fresh drinking water.
Although they make wonderful pets and bond well with people and other animals, it is important
to make a commitment to them in terms of finding a vet, a sitter when you are away, and a "pig
proof" environment. Of course, these same things are true for a dog or cat, but dog/cat vets and
sitters are somewhat easier to find.
We have been breeding and raising potbellied pigs for 15 years and breed healthy correct
animals that range in size from 40-70 pounds. Our herd is certified with the United States
Department of Agriculture. All of our males are neutered at an early age and we recommend
the spaying of females for the best pet pig possible.
