Kune kunes stay fairly small (retriever size, as you put it). Granted they're about 3 times the density, but still manageable. Definitely need a lot of space for them though, no way I'd keep one in an apartment.

Bacon?

You convinced me, I'm gonna kill my dog for tonight's dinner, I hope she understands.

I'm gonna eat twice as many dogs, just so you don't make any difference.

No because that’s not the argument here and we treat dogs differently. And you know that. Don’t go moving the goalposts.

“You uncultured swine!”

/s

You should eat them tho? What should you just bury them and be wasteful? After it’s lead a nice life, that’s food.

Pigs make fine pets I’m sure, but all the people I’ve ever met that had pigs as pets were fucking weird

So when you see someone walk their dog outside will you shout: "You better eat that dog and turn it in to mittens when it dies or it's wasting resources!"

So at the end of this pigs life you’re just going to waste it an bury it? Both can be true, that it’s an intelligent pet you should take care of and that one day it’ll be bacon.

I'm not thinking about getting a pet pig. But have seen an uptick in videos of them.

Are they litter box trained? Or trained to go outside? Is it pretty much like a dog in that regard?

I feel so cozy watching this kind of pixel gifs and IDK why. Is it nostalgia or something?

I just love it.

I actually also know of someone who does live in the city and has a pet pig! She walks her pig on a leash and she(meaning the pig in this case) is about the size of a dog but a lot wider/heavier than the average dog. I don't know the owner personally so have no idea if the pig is difficult to take care of but they seem like a happy pair when I see them walk outside. When people get a pet piglet they definitely shouldn't underestimate taking care of the pig when it grows up though that's for sure.

Sausage roll!

Do you find that people respond well to this style of argument or are you just trying to look smart?

They do. These guys were recruited from prisons and colonies, in return for freedom/reduced sentence. I call that a choice.

One if them is correct and the other one is heartless animal abuse disguised in a joke.

Imagine someone making jokes about killing dogs for pleasure aka "tasty food". Everyone on Reddit would hate that and shame the jokers for not having taste or a working sense of humor.

Reddit universally condemns animal abuse news/stories and some even go so far to demand the perpetators to receive extreme vigilantism because the laws are not harsh enough. And none of them ever are "vegans" or anything close to it. Animal rights for me and not for thee.

Tell me about these breeds of small pigs that are not just underfed normal, large breeds of pig.

I always thought having a mini pig would be great, although IIRC there aren't any that stay small. I had a family friend who got one and he loved it to death, he said it was a great pet, super nice, clean, and smart. It kept growing though and capped out at like 200lbs or something ridiculous like that. It got so big that his family he lived with refused to let it keep staying in the house, so he made a pen for it in their yard. The pig was accustomed to being a "house pig" though, and putting it outside made it horribly depressed. It stopped eating and eventually died :(

Do you also eat disabled people that lack the cognitive capacity to speak?

My pig found itself smart enough to hop over the the barrier from his pen to the next pen and eat all of that pig’s food, and then go to the next one and eat all of that pig’s food, and then the next one and eat all of that pig’s food, and make his way back in time for when it was my turn my time to feed him. He had already eaten three meals, and would just be sitting there waiting for me, and I would feed him and he would eat that. That’s why he gained so much weight and got sifted at the fat stock show.

"It's comin' right for us!!!"
