I babysat my neighbor's miniature pig over 20 years ago. The pig grew much bigger than they thought it would and had to be re-homed.
I read that these miniature pigs are being falsely advertised as 12 pounds full grown. The average adult weight is more like 40 - 50 pounds.
Did you see the story of the woman who was kicked off the plane this week because her emotional support pig was being disruptive? There are photos here:
