It went out of publication in about 2001. Now the book is back in print so that you can benefit from the wealth of information it contains. All the information on training and housing Pot-Bellied pigs is still factual and "in date." The feeding and vaccination information may have incorrect product numbers - but the generic information is still correct.

Customer Reviews
If you own a pig, you should have this book
This book is perfect for the potbellied pig owner. It is sufficiently detailed, yet not so technical as to make it unreadable by a lay person.
Despite the rather silly (but amusing) cover, it is a serious and useful book. It is well-written and the authors go out of their way to make it useful to the non-veterinary person.
The book is not a 1000 page tome of everything you would need to know to get a DVM degree with a specialization in potbellies; instead, it focuses on the medical issues that the PBP owner reallly needs to know - the "gotchas", so to speak.
If you have a pig at home (or are looking to get a pig), you should have this book.
If your vet isn't a pig specialist, RUN, don't walk to your keyboard and order this book. Oh wait, if you're reading this, you're already AT your keyboard. So just order it. That, and if you're a new owner, find a good book on pig behavior and psychology.
My Review of Pot Bellied Pigs: Mini Pig Care and training
Wow! This book helped me so much with the care of my guinea pig! I would recommend it to anyone with a guinea pig or to anyone who is thinking of buying a guinea pig. It's a great book with tons of information!
