VegasPigPets is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization specializing in working with and educating pig owners of the requirements potbelly pigs need to live long, happy lives. We also place and help find homes for unwanted, abandoned, and abused potbelly pigs.
1 - After we receive your form, it will give us an idea on what your expectations are for bringing a pig into your family. If you have any of our specific pigs in mind, some questions may not apply. It looks extensive, but we try to match each pig with a perfect home. 2 - We will then set up a home check. This helps us know where the pig will live and whether it will be safe once it goes to its new home. If any recommendations, we will assist you with any necessary arrangements. 3 - Once we find a match, we ask for a $100 (adults) - $200-250 (piglets) adoption donation fee. This doesn’t cover our vet/spay/neuter costs, but it shows your willingness to spend money your pig pet will require in the future and gives you a vested interest in your new family member! VegasPigPets does graciously accept donations to cover the additional costs of vetting these pigs that need homes. 4 - Once we bring your pig into your home, we require a signed Adoption Agreement that says that you will return the pig to us should the adoption not work out, and you will keep us updated as to its progress in becoming a part of your family. We may do up to 2 home follow-ups in the first year you adopt the pig to ensure you are not having behavioral problems and the whole household is getting along well! We are here for guidance and education and will always be available for the life of that pig should you need us! It seems like an extensive process, but we want you to know all the pros and cons before bringing home a pig so you can commit that 15 - 20 years your pig will require of you and your family!
