Trick training is an excellent way to build a good relationship with your pig. It gives you and your pig a way to work and play together and improves communication, while it reinforces your role as "top pig". It also provides a challenge for your pig’s mind and gives him or her a sense of accomplishment. Spend ten minutes or more each day on trick practice; make it a regular part of your "quality time". It’s fun!

This column will feature basic tricks that everyone can teach their pig. If you have a favorite trick please contribute by sending us your suggestions !
