Potbellied pigs first became popular as pets in the U.S. during the 1980s, when they were imported from Vietnam and quickly won hearts with their small size, intelligence, and friendly demeanor. Today, they’re cherished companions known for their playful, curious personalities and ability to form strong bonds with their owners.
These lovable pigs are incredibly smart, often learning tricks faster than dogs, and can be taught to sit, spin, or even walk on a leash! They love to explore and play, so providing space and toys to keep them busy is a must.
Surprisingly clean animals, potbellied pigs can also be housebroken like dogs, making them a unique and affectionate addition to any family.
