Question
Hello,

Do you happen to have a resource to help me find a reputable breeder in Northern California? My wife and I want a pig but we are having trouble finding a breeder near us. We would like to see the parents and the environment before committing to buy from a breeder.

           Regards, Darin Oliva

Answer
You are in luck, Diane Murray in No. CA is one of the best!
She is honest, socializes, spays, neuters. and has great stock.
Contact her at  hogndog@starstream.net
Please consider adopting from a sanctuary, too.
But most of all, do your homework first.
Is a pig for you?
ALL mini  pigs potentially can get over 100#. They need to be allowed by your city, and have fenced property and a place outdoors to be a pig.
Please consider our book "Potbellied Pig Behavior and Training" at amazon.com. It was written to let you know if a pig is for you.
Also, it will answer your questions throughout the life of your beloved pig.
Good luck,
Priscilla
