How did you teach her how to shake, I taught mine to sit, Circle, and roll over, but I can't figure out how to teach him how to shake. Please respond, I want to teach him as many tricks as possible while he's still a piglet
@DesiGM91 Can you tell me how you got her to sit? Food is the best way to train a pig of course so when I taught her to shake, I would literally ask her to shake, pick up her hoof from the ground into my hand, and then praise her and give her a treat. She got the idea after about 10 min.
Hi, Lizzy! Hope u & Sophie are well. We have been watching the Teacup pig site 4 their newborns. Did u know there is a new classification: POCKET nano micro mini piglets? This category is for 20 pounds or less. Maybe Sophie needs a sibling! OK, so we have a question, more of a concern really. We've watched your vids & those of others & notice these babies seem stubborn & don't do anything w/o food. Will we B not much more than sources of food, like human food troughs? Thx 4 yr honesty.
Thats great. We have a 4 month old "teacup" potbelly... If she ends up the size of yours we well be pleased! I taught her how to sit and "dance" (spin around). Still working on more!
She's beautiful! My hubby & I have been enjoying yr videos. Thk u 4 sharing. We have been considering a pet piggy 4 quite some time but have been afraid of how truly large they get. Seeing yr Sophie puts r minds more @ ease, so thx again 4 sharing. A fave is the 1 n wh she shakes yr hand n the kitchen. "good shake" indeed! Lol how much does she weigh now that she's full grown AND is she too heavy 2 hold n yr lap?
@Atethecat Thank you! :) I highly recommend getting a pig, but only if you have a lot of free time those first several months to give them a lot of attention, socialization, and setting of rules. Of course all of these are important throughout their whole life, but is especially crucial in their first year. They are very smart and very cuddly believe it or not :). She is not too big to pick up, or sleep in my lap. She looks the size of my cat but all compact muscle at 32 lbs. She's amazing!
@Atethecat She is very sweet. I took this vid about 1 yr ago and she is still the same size. She sits in my lap all the time. They LOVE to cuddle! Pigs are great pets and very loving and loyal but do require a lot of attention. Even more so than a dog. They are worth it though
She wags her tail just as a dog would!!:D

@AbbyIsMyWeim Most potbelly or miniature pigs have straight tails. Nothing is wrong with her lol. But, good question anyway.

By chance do pet pigs shed their hair like dogs? Just out of curiousity.
vookiebear 7 months ago
@vookiebear They do shed but more like a human will shed hair occasionally. Nothing like a dog. They are also hypoallergenic
