Question
Dear Patricia,

I have wanted a miniature pig for seven years now but knowing that they live so long I have wanted to be sure I choose the right breed and that I have a stable happy home for him to come home to.  There are stories of Australian breeders selling miniature pigs that end up growing up into quite large animals.  

Are you able to export your royal dandies to australia and if not can you recommend any breeders or particular breeds I should be looking for here?  What is the smallest breed after royal dandies and what size do they grow.  

I can't tell you how happy having a little wee dandie would make me.  I would really appreciate your help with these questions.

Thank you for your attention.

Leith

Answer
Hello,
First of all I am sorry that I can only ship within the US.
There are usually long quarantines for pigs and that just wouldn't be practical for these little guys.  Also the flight would be hard on them.

I am not familiar with breeds in Australia.  I wish I could help you but I am the only breeder at this time.
Good luck with your venture!
Patty
