Bane is a neutered house pig with yard time who is harness trained and housebroken. He was raised alongside a (now adult) child in the home, from when they were 10 years old (now 21). He hasn't been around kids since then. Bane had a dog attack him when he was younger and is now dog selective. He doesn't like one dog in the home, but likes the other. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.) He is very good with cats, chickens, ducks, and even tortoises. A home without dogs is preferred, but a home with dogs that can separate them would be fine. He's a good boy who needs more physical and mental stimulation.
From poor breeding, his hooves need a little extra care. (He came from a pet store.)
His family said: Bane is very stubborn, and a lot of the time it's his way or the highway. He is shy, but once out of his shell, he is curious. He likes to give kisses, get belly scratches, and lie in the sun. He honestly does not get handled a lot of the time, so he can be standoffish towards strangers, and he can be human selective. He likes stealing food, knocking over water bowls; he doesn't like the rain, the "evil" farrier, or cabbage.
Transportation is available within about 2 hours to the new home.
