So i was thinking, on this forum there are a lot of people who say it's bad to buy a pet store pig because they can come with illnesses, and even die within the first few weeks of owning one. My thoughts are that these peoples heads are in the right place - not supporting the pet shops, though, i think they are missing the point of WHY not to buy a pet store pig. I believe that you shouldnt buy a pig from petco or petsmart because it supports people breeding new pigs, when there are so many in shelters already. The buying of sick pigs shouldnt be focused on just pet store piggies, because if you think about it, most pigs that will be at shelters or on craigslist could have the exact same problems as a pet store pig. I mean, most if not all of the pigs on craigslist and in shelters are most likely from your local petco or petsmart. I'm not really too sure on why i felt the need to post this, but i have it off my chest now. What're your guys' thoughts?
