I've picked the name, now all I have to do is find the pig!

The Search Continues:

I've been on 2 piggie-expiditions to date, both unsuccessful in regards to piggies but very entertaining and worth a report.

A very good frined of mine contacted me and let me know that there was a posibility that I may find a miniature pig in Sosua. Knowing that I am unfamiliar with the area of Sosua, he offered to send someone with me - Jose. So, the next day Jose and I set of to find me a pig. With a little patience from both our sides (he speaks Spanish and I am English) we get to the house where the piggies are kept. I saw immediatley that these were normal pigs that turn out to be the size of small vehicles when fully grown.
When Jose realized that these are not the kind of pigs I am looking for he tried explaining this to the pig owner. The owner was insitant that if I do not feed the pig he was trying to sell me, it would not grow. I tried explaining that I really don't want a malnourished pig, just a different kind of pig ...... so the ownder told me about some sick pigs that he knew about. Then, he couldn't understand why I didn't want one of the sick pigs.
During this whole proccess I went from looking for a 'miniature pig' to a 'pig that doesn't grow'.
Does anyone know the translation for Miniature Pig or Potbellied Pig?
The second trip into piggie-land was much shorter ..... nobody knew where the guy we were looking for lives. Still, Jose is sure this man has the pig I want.
I will update shortly again in regards to the search for a miniature pig, in the meantime, Girlie - I wish you luck!!

Stay well,
Amy
