After a couple years of occasionally searching online for "the one," my eyes fell on his perfect pink snout, and I knew it was time. He was sweet and big and black and in serious need of a home. Just the kind of pig I had wanted! Except for----I live in Austin, and he had been rescued in Iowa. After much nervousness adopting someone I'd never met, and spending more money than I'd intended on the relocation part of his adoption, I hired a driver off
www.uship.com. Several days later a man in a seatless minivan arrived with my big pig riding shotgun! Moments later--reality. He was terrified and ran and hid in a bush. Uh-oh. Now my husband and I were terrified too! But needless to say, after several days of checking one another out, lots of snacks, and relaxing into both our adjusted new lives, it was perfect. And he was/is the "one." He loves long naps under the oak trees, movie night in front of the TV, and lounging in the pool during hot Texas days. He fits right in in this family! Thanks, Petfinder. Glad to have you home, Jubba!
