Wilbur
My baby boy Wilbur is in need of a forever home. He is 4 years old, neutered, harness trained and weighs around 135lbs but needs shots and worming. Wilbur is very shy at first, but once he warms up to you he will love you forever and follow you all over the house! He is great with dogs of all sizes and also with cats and children. Wilbur is an indoor piggy that loves attention and is also potty trained. He spends alot of his day outside eating grass, but always comes inside for bed time. Depending on weather will depend on if he is outside during the day. He loves his belly and his nose rubbed. When I tuck him in at night and feed him I use the term "ma ma." Telling him that mama is going to feed him and tuck him in. Wilbur is so smart that he caught onto the word mama very fast. Now, when he wants to come inside he stands at the patio door and oinks and makes piggy noises. If I don't respond to him in a minute or two he starts actually saying "MA MA!" People that come over and hear that can't believe what they are hearing! It's adorable... I love my Wilbur very much and do not want to re home my baby boy. I had to move and cannot take him with me to my new residence. I will be very picking about who and where he goes. I want to make sure he is going to be loved and well taken care of. I will have to meet the people he will be around and see the environment he will be living in before I let him go with anyone. Please feel free to call or email with any questions you may have.
