Ted Pig Pig Mix Escondido, CA

How this pet arrived:Ted was brought in as a stray by our Humane Law Enforcement Team. At SDHS:Ted has received medical attention, and seems to be in good health. Why this pet is the one for you:Ted has lived with us since he was a young piggie. He likes other farm animals, but doesn't seem to like other pigs. He is playful and energetic and loves to run around. Pigs make wonderful pets, and they require a lot of consideration. Before adopting it is important to confirm with your city that your property is properly zoned for housing a pig. Pigs also require a large outdoor space, appropriately fenced and containing access to a predator-proofed indoor shelter area. They also require access to fairly large bodies of water, especially when the weather warms up. They love to lounge and cool off, root around and play in water! Ample fresh drinking water should be provided separately. Pigs can bond to other animals and they form very close relationships with humans. Pigs are extremely intelligent animals. Most pigs are food motivated and enjoy the mental stimulation of positive reinforcement training, just like dogs!
