A Path With Paws

I don’t often post links to videos but this little guy is so cute! Meet Kingsford the pot belly pig! The music is a little scary.

Do you know we have a pretty amazing pig rescue called Pigs Peace Sanctuary outside of Seattle? I have never been there myself but have friends who have gone out to volunteer and help Judy with the pigs.

I never knew that pigs could be litterbox trained. Pigs are smarter than dogs, in fact they are consider number four in intelligence behind chimpanzees, dolphins and elephants! You can train a pig to do anything you can train a dog to do and more. Pigs contrary to common belief as very clean animals.

Unfortunately many of these little guys are purchased when they are small without people realizing that they can get to 200lb or more. There are many organizations that help with pig rescue and information. If you are thinking of getting a pig contact them first and do your research.
