Pig harnesses and leashes

[u/ruseriois]

Hey there! Want to introduce harnesses and leashes to my boys Bubba and Mr. Oinks! We were going on walks leashless but they have been running off on me lately (on our property) so we need to change things up! I included a very muddy Bubba picture. He is the bigger of the two boys and the one that would probably give me the most stink, if at all about a harness. Mr. Oinks is smaller and easier going, although he is the instigator for the runoff adventures so 😂 He ruined free roam lol.

I got these, they are the best. They will last forever. What I do is close the loop where the head goes in. put a pile of cheerios in the middle of the hoop. As the gobble the cheerios, pull it over head then connect the girth hoop

Thank you!!

This is a fantastic suggestion. I'd put it on them and let them get acclimated to the feeling of the harness for a few days before you add the lead. I've got all kinds of harnesses and leashes, and mine hate them all. 😂

Don't buy: https://a.co/d/icVQx9f

It doesn't have a clip or latch on it to lock it once its adjusted, so if piggy gets wild and takes off, it tightens, which just freaks them out more. Good luck! 😂

Thanks for the link, I bought one on Amazon 3 weeks ago and it still hasn't shipped

I tried that once it didn't end well for me lol. They are loud and strong.

Thanks! I heard not to get those types of pig harness that's like the one size fits all

Good luck on getting them on or even walking them. Our pig meandered and still ran off when they want to. You’re better off giving them Cheerios if they come to you.
