Today we are talking about a controversial topic in the pig world. 

TEACUP PIGS

What are teacup pigs?

Probably fifty percent of the phone calls I receive are people asking me if I have teacup pigs.

Is there a such thing as teacup pigs?

NO

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a pixie pig, a nano pig, a micro pig or a micro mini pig.  These words have been created by brilliant marketers and advertisers.

So, when it comes to teacup pigs, let's try to gently, and kindly educate others.  No healthy pig stays tiny.  My hope with this podcast is to empower the pig community with correct information.  I want those interested in a pet pig to have the tools to make an informed decision.  I also want to support those who already have a pet pig to help them understand them so they can enjoy them even more.

On today's episode we are talking with Dr. Tricia M. Pugh, DVM, CVA, CVMMP, Owner Red Star Veterinary Clinic.

Dr. Tricia Pugh, owner of Red Star Vet Clinic has been practicing veterinary medicine for the past 13 years on both small and large animals. In both categories, she treats pigs. Pigs have become enormously popular pets and require similar veterinary care that is given to dogs and cats.

Dr. Trish enjoys treating pigs on a regular basis at the clinic and on the farm. In the clinic she performs spay and neuter surgeries as well as vaccines and wellness appointments. On the farm, she will administer vaccinations and wellness exams.

Pigs are a growing category in family pets and Dr. Trish has embraced them offering the highest quality care for them.

In this episode Dr. Trish gives her opinion on some highly debated topics in the pig world. For example: deworming, how often should it be done? What vaccines are needed with a pig, anesthesia, and what warning signs you need to know to get your pig to the vet.

Who am I? What do I do? Where did I come from? What do I do now to support the pig community and help pigs all over the world?

 

My Name is Autumn Whitacre. I live in Minerva Ohio with my husband and two boys. We have a small homestead in the country.

I have loved pigs since I was a little girl.  I was a newbie pig owner 19 years ago, and the internet wasn't around so I did a lot of research at the library but there was not much info available. So, I did the best I could. I learned so much from having our first 2 pigs in our life.

 

My true passion is education. So, I try to step up and provide that information. I try to provide quality education all in one place. Consultations are my absolute favorite thing to do because I get to help people understand their pet pig, so they all thrive together and have less chance of being rehomed or given away.

 

This podcast is one way that I'm trying to get the word out there that pigs really do make amazing pets, but you have to have the knowledge to understand how to take care of them. My hope is that this podcast will help you understand your pig better so that you can enjoy your pig even more.
