Vietnamese Pot-Bellied Pig Information:

Vietnamese Pot-Bellied Pigs (VPBP) are a breed of domestic pig that originated from Vietnam. They are known for their distinctive pot-bellied appearance, which includes a round belly, short legs, and a short snout. They were originally kept as pets by Vietnamese farmers and were not commonly known outside of their native country until the 1980s, when they were imported to the United States.

VPBPs are smaller than most other breeds of domestic pig, typically weighing between 100-200 pounds when fully grown. They are also known for their intelligence and sociability, and are often kept as pets or used in animal therapy programs.

While they are often referred to as "miniature" pigs, it's important to note that VPBPs are still considered domestic pigs and can grow to be quite large if not properly cared for. They require specialized care and attention, including a specific diet, exercise, and veterinary care.
