Yes, a full blown pig. Maybe a pot belly pig? It was a male pig, not too awfully big. The dog was very friendly. I tried to get a look at her tag, which had a bone tag with names on it, but the pig was too close. And I don't think the dog really liked the pig.
So she took off across the road, with the pig grunting after her. I sure hope they found their way home, where ever it is. Just another strange sight in the little town of Flintstone, Ga. And that's the little fire hall with the tractor beside it. The elementary school is to the right behind the fire hall.
Speaking of pigs... here's my pig. I haven't been down to see him in several months. He's in the middle. They really aren't very big. They are long. But not fat. And I want a FAT pig! I mean, I want FAT on my meat when I get it. I want fat on the pork chops. I hate lean tough pork chops. And fat in the sausage. I don't like having to add oil to the pan. I can hardly wait! And I want lots of bacon. And I want to make lots of lard too. So I want a fat pig.
I am trying to get ready for a big show this weekend at Cloudland Station. It's Sat. and Sun. I always do really good there. So I have lots of things to do the next 2 days to get it all ready. I'll be taking pottery, soap, and wool stuff. So excited!

If you want lard, you have to get a lard breed of pig. On the facebook groups for Guinea Hogs, I often see people practically giving them away in some states (they say they just don't sell in their state). You might want to keep an eye on there.

I see really huge hogs at the slaughterhouse a lot. When I have raised pigs myself and taken them in, mine look like little dogs next to those big huge pigs! I will have to look for Guinea hogs now. Seems like someone up on the mountain raises them.
