  <default_description>&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;According to Chuck Wooster, pigs are adorable, clean, friendly animals. So, it&amp;#8217;s no wonder that you&amp;#8217;ve thought about raising them as companions. But if you also happen to love bacon, and don't like the reports of pollution and cruelty in the pig pork industry, you might consider raising your own pigs as meat animals as well. Keeping pigs happy in either situation means understanding their needs and temperaments. &lt;B&gt;Living with Pigs&lt;/B&gt; teaches readers what pigs need, how to raise them, and which breeds make the best bacon. Wooster&amp;#8217;s friendly advice and appealing anecdotes will help you: &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;BR&gt;* choose what breed of pig or pigs is best for you&lt;BR&gt;* provide the best shelter and food for your pigs&lt;BR&gt;* train your pig&lt;BR&gt;* treat your pig&amp;#8217;s injuries and illnesses&lt;BR&gt;* butcher your pig and make your own bacon&lt;BR&gt;* and much more&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Illustrated with Geoff Hansen&amp;#8217;s beautiful full-color photographs, &lt;B&gt;Living with Pigs&lt;/B&gt; serves as a great introduction if you&amp;#8217;re considering owning one or a whole herd as well as an essential guidebook if you already own a few. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[As a farme-wannabe, I'm enjoying this book.  Easy read, good info, great photos, great beginner book.  Only problem is the whole point of having pigs - pork!  Author assumes you will raise pigs for meat, so have then just around for spring-fall.  After all, a 500 pound pet is a little hard to manage...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/34916655">more...</a>]]></body>
