What pigs need

Pigs handle heat and drafts poorly. They cannot sweat, so shade and water matter in summer, and large swings between warm days and cool nights raise the risk of respiratory disease. Dry bedding and protection from drafts help. Pet pigs are also prone to weight gain, which strains joints and the heart, so diet and body condition are part of every visit.

Fall and winter preparation

As temperatures change, watch for coughing, reduced appetite, and pigs that huddle or seem dull. Early attention keeps small problems small. Our fall health checklist includes a short section on pigs.
