Good job, Mike!
They were first imported to Canada in the 60's from Vietnam, then here in the 80's. They get their name from the sway back and low hanging pot belly.

Michael, don't be "liking" Gary's comment...
She got a new bale of straw last night

Nick, which does Bitsy like the most? A new bale of straw or soft mud?

When it is cold, the straw. When it is hot, the mud It's hard to take a picture of her in her house because when she hears or sees you she comes on the run. I don't have a clue how she learned to associate treats with me....?

I think all of the above comes from her 1/4 Kune Kune linage. (Ku-nee Ku-nee) means "Fat and Round" Here is a random picture of one.

PETS???? are like a Dog or Cat (Heaven forbid your a cat man) Pigs Are for eating. I personally like them slow turned over a bed of hot wood coals for MANY hours before ringing the dinner bell for everyone to come and get it, accompanied with lots of different styles of salads & side dishes

AND LOTS OF BEER!!!!!

Nick, Bitsy's shelter is first-rate! All well thought out for a special member of the family.
Has she been spending more time in the shelter since the upgrades were added?

Gotta shovel some snow today so short legged Bitsy's pot belly don't drag in it, lol

Winterized Bitsy's house today, it was 5* this morning and they say down to -5 before this storm is over. Added plastic behind her lattice shade and a door flap out a grease rag bed sheet

My sister is a pig nut. She'd squawk at you for not having that "baby" inside the house for the winter.
