I agree. Just because you have to drive further than what you would for work is no excuse to buy from a pet store. My husband and I drove an hour and a half to get our last pair from a rescue organization.
There are ALWAYS piggies out their waiting to be rescued from either Petfinder, a rescue organization, or someone needing to rehome.
If luck is on your side, your purchased pig will be healthy. And you really should read the links and stickies regarding introducing a new pig before you post. They will answer a lot of your questions and keep your stresses to a minimum
