So my GF bought a pig today...

[whudafux]

Now how the hell do I train it? I know they are smart and are kinda like dogs.

She eats dog food already, but she panicks everytime someone puts their hand near the cage. She'll huff and will act like she'll bite you but never does. I'm the only one not scared of her and she knows this. Once you pick her up out of the cage, she completely relaxes and will most likely fall asleep in your arms. She needs to be in the cage otherwise we'll never catch her and she'll squeal like crazy if we do try to catch her.

She's around 9 lbs. and she's, I guess, a mini pot belly pig. The previous owner said she'll probably only get around 40-50 lbs because the parents were small.

train it to jump into a fire pit...pork has good meat on it

Lol, her dad was making bacon and pork jokes all day long. The first time it squealed at me I told my GF that I was gonna throw her in the lake. Then she told me that the pig can swim. WTF.

I have no clue how to train the pig, but I do know what to do if you end up not being able to train it

That's when you tell your girlfriend that yall should go to the room so you can make her squeal like a pig.....works everytime j/k

I dunno anything about pigs as far as training. I think for the most part a pig is a pig and that's how they will act at the end of the day. I don't think there are any trainers in our area for pigs either.

My advice would be search, search, search.

Worst movie ever.

 

[Jeff Lange]

WTF mate. Any Simpsons fan should have loved the movie. It was like going back in time 10 years. Pure gold.

 

[IJ.]

Haven't seen it yet .....
(GF isn't a fan so I missed it at the movies)

 

[Jeff Lange]

All that being said, and after looking at a few pictures of PB pigs, I couldn't have one as a pet, and don't see the "cuteness" others do. Looks like food to me. .

But, people like different things, so be it!

I am a HUGE simpsons fan. The movie was a complete let down.
On that note, Cook the fucking pig!

All I can think about now is the smell of a pig roasting. Tongans that lived near me would do 3 or more every summer.
