The Pig

Yesterday I watched a show on the Animal Planet. The show involved a pot belly pig from the UK. She was a rescue pig. Rescued because she had ate herself blind literally.Evidently pigs will eat and eat. They do not know when to quit. This pig had eaten so much that fat folds covered her eyes and drug the ground, hampering her ability to see and walk. The new family placed her in her own pen on their farm. The pig wouldn't leave her pig house so the best pig doctor in the UK was called. He prescribed exercise and fruits and vegetables. The pig loved apples and pears but not exercise. I really bonded with the pig. I felt her fat. The family got a young girl pot belly pig. She was placed in the pen with the rescue pig. The rescue pig followed the young pig around even trying to run and play. The doctor said the rescue pig could not loose too much weight. That would cause loose skin over the eyes and drag the ground. If you refer back to the Flat Belly Cookbook post, I addressed that loose skin issue. Anyway the moral of this story - girls need their girlfriends.
