Today I was looking through my phone and I found this old photo of my boy.

He looked very grubby, tired, timid, scrauney, very very scared and thin. His hair is out of condition and generally he just was not a happy healthy piggy.

You forget how far they come when you have them long term.

I cant believe he used to look like this when now he strutts his stuff all over the joint, weighs a whopping 1300ish grams, has a thick bright white full coat and popcorns daily and will take food from my hand with no problems.

Now-ish

Love you my little Haribo!xoxo
 
What an amazing transformation! Well done to you and him. He is x)
 
The rescue told me he wasn't a long haired piggie and it didn't keep growing..... Funny now he's got a great diet he's a stereotypical peru and it does keep growing and growing.......and growing. Wee bit of TLC and a good diet works wonders
 
He is so blimming gorgeous! Well done for getting him back to full health x)x)x)
 
Aww well done, he looks fab (this is the 'i'm so worth it' piggy isn't it?!).

How on earth do you keep him so clean looking, I always assumed (like with white dogs) that they'd look a bit scraggy from time to time but he looks pure snowy!
