FAQs About Pet Pigs

Pet pigs are omnivores, so they can eat fresh veggies and animal protein. However, don’t give your pig cat or dog food, as this often has too much protein. Food specifically designed for active adult pigs will include ingredients like ground corn, ground oats, alfalfa meal, ground soybean hulls, flaxseed and vitamin supplements. A crude protein level of at least 16% helps keep your pet pig energized and active. Avoid giving overly fatty or salty foods to these pets.

Toys are also important pet pig supplies. They keep your pet’s mind active and can even help you bond with your pet. Pet pigs enjoy things they can chew on, like plastic balls and other chew toys. You may also get many hours of fun out of a rooting mat meant to be dug into, which can be great for these natural foragers. You may also want to get a pop-up tunnel maze for your mini pig, which gives them a sense of adventure in a protected environment.

Mini pigs can wear properly-fitting collars and harnesses. If you’re worried about your pet becoming caught up in something while wearing their collar, consider a break-away collar which will automatically release in an emergency. You may find harnesses to be more useful mini pig supplies than a neck collar, as harnesses allow you to steer your pig’s direction better and control their movements.

Remember that mini pigs should be harness trained, just like dogs. It may take your pet pig a little while to get the hang of using one, but positive reinforcement and patience can go a long way.

Your veterinarian will determine the best course of vaccine treatment based on the type of pig you have, their exposure to other animals and their age. Common pet pig vaccines often include inoculation against erysipelas, leptospirosis, pleuropneumonia, Mycoplasma, Bordetella, swine influenza and tetanus.
