Question

milo
hi i just got a pot belly piglet. he is 5 weeks and altered.i just want to know more about how to go about bonding with my pig, I have gotten just enough trust were he will let me pet him a little bit.I would like him to get use to me enough so i could hold and and be able to restrain him for when i need to care for him example trimming hoofs.I also want to soon be able to train him to go outside for his business, he is going in a litter box right now.lastly i want to harness train him for walks.. i cant do any of this unless he trust me more. so please any advice would be greatly appreciated.

thank you jenn

Answer
Hi Jenn,
The best way to build confidence and trust with your piglet is to purchase the Infinity Plus Training Harness/Leash combination.
It comes with a DVD and the leash will fit your piglet for it's lifetime.
You can purchase one by going to the Royal Dandie web site and then to the product page.
This will make your training go very fast.
Good luck,
Patty
