Dramatic Pot Belly Pig at the dog groomers?
Mabel is a spoiled rotten house pig, and she sleeps in the bed with her humans, which means that she requires a bath from time to time as she does not live outside like most pigs.
Mabels owners are on a mission to educate people on how to care for their pot belly pig, and bring awareness to dishonest breeders who lie about selling "mini pigs." Although they bathe their pig at home, it has become increasingly difficult to due her size. That's where I came in. Her owner Maddy is a registered Veterinary Assistant, and she has dreams of one day opening an animal sanctuary specifically for, but not limitted to, abandoned pigs, and I hope her dreams come true!

That is when you see the difference between a dog groomer and pet groomer Edit: Woah I have never gotten more that 21 likes thank you for 128 likes!
I bet her owner's name is Waddles lol 😆
Thanks, I hate it. Will keep eating them though.
@@stuffshadow528 it’s not, but come check us out and you can find out 🐷
You and her can team up as you both want to create animal sancutaries.
Important to note about anyone considering getting a pig as a pet: there is no such thing as a mini, teacup, or pocket pig. All pigs grow to enormous size. Don't get one thinking it will stay tiny and cute; it will not.
Friend of mine found that out the hard way. He bought a potbelly pig about the size of a large puppy. Isn't that cute? Ten years later you could have used that pig's back as a pool table and he was literally strong enough that an adult could ride him. IF you could stay on, because he didn't like it much
Just to add on, when people sell mini, teacup, or pocket pigs, the pigs are often underfed to make them look smaller.
Well, they won't stay tiny, anyway.
Yes although size in pigs does vary according to breed. It has nothing to do with them being fed food laced with growth supplements, as someone who knew nothing about pigs once insisted to me. What growth supplements do in commercial pig breeding is cause a growth spurt before puberty so when the pig is killed it's obtained maximum weight in the shortest time period . Male pigs can also get a lot bigger than female, so anyone getting a pig needs to remember that.
Are pigs that noisy too?
"Upset but also food" is definitely a mood
Oh yeah. I totally get what she’s feeling!
Me.
Literally, eating dinner after a bad day is hilarious 😂
Literally Me, nothing beats having favourite food at the end of a terrible day, it instantly lifts the mood 💜💜
Just read the comment when it popped up
Looks: adorable, plump, friendly Sounds: evil, monstrous, furious
imagine hearing this in the middle of the night, i would never sleep again
Ideal for horror movies.
@@Thekellin1 Pig screams are extremely frequently used for demon/monster sounds in video games and movies.
You're right man, it works@@FSAPOJake
@@FSAPOJakeI was just thinking she sounded like something out of a video game!
I love that Mabel complained heartily about being at the grooming shop but her biggest tantrum was when she had to leave. She wanted to stay forever!
Never underestimate just how food motivated a pig is lmao
😂😂😂😂😂
Must have REALLY enjoyed that belly rub!
It was also cold outside, so she saw the ice and snow and wanted back in. Or did i miss-see ( as opposed to mishear )
Or she's just a contrarian.
Lmao Mabel being carried to the car “NOOOOO HEEEELP HEEEEEEELP” then once in the car she’s like “ok this is cozy”
That's what I was thinking. She seemed cold.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's the carry part, most pigs make that horrible squealing sound when being picked up. I can't stand that noise
I wonder how many times those owners have had the cops called mistaking those pig squeals for someone screaming bloody murder.
@@saladmcjones7798 I would just assume that my neighbor is a death metal singer.
Kindergarten teachers: "Pigs go 'oink'." Actually pigs: *demonic screams from the depths of hell*
I guess they didn’t wanna traumatize us, so instead they lied
LoL!! We thought the same thing! There was no "Oink" to be found in the entire video!
Yea I always wondered why they do that. I bet it’s because saying “the pig goes AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA” is slightly scary to toddlers.
Kindergarten: Oink Reality:. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Suddenly makes sense why Ganon likes being a pig.
Pigs HATE being picked up. Once when I was a kid I was playing with a few little piglets on my grandparents farm and picked one up like a puppy. 30 years later and my ears are still ringing.
Because their natural enemies are predator birds who pick from above so they sound the alarm. They like rubs behind the elbows. On the belly side might arouse them but if you scratch certain parts it is like showing dominance. They got their language.
“Upset but also food” is very relatable. Thank you Mabel.
Love how Mabel went from "I hate it here" to "I REFUSE to leave". Gotta love snacks.
I mean pigs love food.
Like a 300 lb toddler
I dogsit a LOT, and I freely admit that I bribe dogs to love me with lots of treats. Lol!
@@spamgarbage6999 Sooo true, having a toddler, and now I know a pig, you have to learn to go with the flow. 😆
@@sallygreenfield6991 well, do not be fooled. It helps a lot. But not with all dogs. And only at the right moment. I used to reward a little terriorist several times for coming - I called him when I saw or heard him doing mischief. He came straight like a bullet. Took the reward and returned - also straight like a bullet - back to doing mischief. Wrong connection. I felt like a complete idiot.
Mabel screaming as she's carried to the vehicle and immediately stopping as soon as she gets in is the funniest thing
Absolutely died in laughter
I couldn’t stop laughing! Hilarious
I didn’t find it funny. Poor thing. But she’s a sweetheart
And they try to make out this thing is smarter than a dog.
Intelligence does not necessarily bestow appreciation of the unfamiliar. Lucky when it does.
Yup, all the neighbors heard was frantic pig squeals that suddenly stopped. 😂
Neighbors must be thinking "WTF kind of demon dog is she grooming today?!?"
Screams all the way to the car, only to instantly calm down once she's in. 😂😂 She's basically a 100+ pound toddler.
I have one potbelly pig .. lol for real 😂
I think that "perpetual toddler" is an apt description for dogs, too. 😂 And some cats.
Typical female.
They always freakout when you pick them up. My grandparents farm used to have a few pigs and once as a kid I was playing with the friendly piglets and picked on up like a puppy. My ears are still ringing 30 years later.
@@goodshipkaraboudjan Bahahahaha
I've seen huskies sing the song of their people, a trash goblin, a prancing marshmallow, and dust mops. but a pot-belly pig? Something tells me I haven't seen it all 😂
Im waiting for someone to bring in a deer or sheep.
Something tells me we're all waiting for the next chapter. Perhaps a rabbit? Maybe a capybara? How about a fox?
pigs have songs of the people as well
@@appleguy4life867 Soprano squeals?
for a moment i think is a coach Greg Doucette pig....
Pigs scare me. They can do real damage and on top of that, they sound like demons in agony! Like why do they sound so scary, bruh?

I was having an anxiety attack, but seeing your difficulty putting Mabel in the car and laughing quite hard, has made me feel so much better! I wish there were tiny pigs, for I’m sure I’d get one. Mabel is marvelous!.
Mabel being asked to go into the groomers: "No I don't think I will." Mabel being asked to leave the groomers: "No I don't think I will." lol
😂😂 💯
Thats pretty much everything with pot belly pigs. I have one :bath time :AHHHHHHHHHHHH I WILLL NOT ENTER AHHHH :no is cosy i no leave
That's just pigs. Incredibly intelligent and equally lazy.
i feel the same exact way about getting in and out of the shower lol
She just doesn't want to move at all. I sympathize some days.
I love how Mabel went from "I HAVE RIGHTS! I WILL NOT BE SILENCED!' to 'This is ok.'
AM I BEING DETAINED?!
Silence of the pigs.
YES!! lmao "I NEED AN ADULT I NEED AN ADU- oh i can lay down!"
Mabel: "Am I being arrested? " Girl with the dogs: "You're being detained ".
@stevenshea990 i immédiately thought of the lyrics from 2econd 2ight 2eer by will wood 💀
I have 3 potbelly pigs and one potbelly/farm pig. When I have to trim hooves, you need to wear noise cancelling headphones. Miss Mabel was very well behaved during her bath.Glad she saved her squeal for last! LOL. My pigs now live outside full time. No need to bathe them anymore. They take mud baths in the summer.
1:20 "Upset but food" - This is an absolute mood.
My neighbors had a potbelly pig that looked just like Mabel. His name was Cledus and he was awesome. He escaped one day and found his way into my backyard where my 500+ lb Hereford x Landrace sow lived. It was love at first sight! From that day forward, he would find a way to escape his house at least once a week, trot the 1/2 mile to my house and we would find him outback serenading my big girl through the fence and rubbing noses. And when he was ready to go home he would just come headbutt my front door, I'd give him a treat and then walk him back to his place. This went on for almost 2 years before my old girl passed away. He would still come visit whenever he could. He would go to her old pen, sit quietly for a bit and then come get me and we would hang out for awhile before I brought him home. He just passed away last year and I miss him as if he were my own.
That is so sweet! And you're so sweet for letting him visit his girlfriend every day. They're together in hog heaven now.
That is so incredibly sweet and wholesome, and the mental picture of him coming and sitting outside your girl's pen amuses me to no end. What did your neighbors think of him having a girlfriend? ;D
@@hoppytoad79 at first they were super apologetic. It took me about half an hour to get them to understand that I loved having him come visit and that it really wasn't a problem. It got to the point after a couple of months that they would either text me "Incoming" if he got out or I would text them to let them know he was at my place if they didn't realize he had pulled a Houdini. It just became a normal thing and both piggies were happier with a friend. So it worked out.
@@Meraxes6 I like to picture them sitting in a field of wildflowers, Cledus singing away.
That is so cute. I am almost teary eyed at him visiting her pen even after she passed. Animals are so human-like sometimes, it really makes you feel for them.
Mabel yelling her displeasure while still chewing was hilarious. My weenie dog does that when I clip her nails. I give her some peanut butter and she'll growl half-heartedly while licking the spoon lol
I love weenies but have never owned one, I can only imagine how adorable that is
I have a senior rescue chihuahua who is possessive of his food and when the cat gets a little too close to his yummy dinner, he'll go GRRRRnonmnomnomGRRRRnomnomnom. Gets me every time.
Super upset but still hungry. Relatable tbh.
My own lil assuage pup is literally the same way 😂 weenies are wild but just the cutest babies
So conflicted lol.
Mabel getting into the car sounded like me waking up early for work.
What fun! Mabel was adorable. Hysterical when she didn’t want to get in the car, then immediately stopped fussing when she was in it.
"Upset, but also food." I understand completely Mabel. Good Job, pigs can be scary loud for no good reason.
GAGAGAGAGAGA! I will now count to 3 and then I am still the unprettiest KZheadr of all time. 1...2...3. GAGAGAGAGAGA!!! Thank you for your attention, dear tara
@@AxxLAfriku wuuuuut??
@@AxxLAfriku You are having a stroke. Please call 911, you need help.
Mabel is me or…am I Mabel??
I also stuff my face when in distress. Very relatable.
Mabel didn't want to go. She was getting all the snackies!
I wouldn’t want to leave either if somebody was giving me snacks!! 😆😉
😂
@@blueroseofpurity9691 Honestly, same. XD
That’s what it was🤣🥰
Either that or it was cold af outside and she didn't want any of it, lol. I can relate, Mabel.
As a fellow Canadian - I really appreciated seeing your yard all icy and snowy for once! 😋
Gotta love how Mabel was like "UNHAND ME YOU HEATHENS! I HAVE RIGHTS! WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME!? I DEMAND TO SEE MY LAWYER! LET ME GO! I AM NOT LEAVING THIS PLACE OF FOOD! GET YOUR HANDS O- *Bed comfy~* ......................................"
Did not expect this. Never imagined being a pet grooming would include pig bathing.
Me neither 🤣
Well, grooming an indoor pet pig makes sense, even if it’s way out of the ordinary. She may not be coating her skin with mud like pigs kept with outdoor access, but that skin still produces oils, and needs maintenance to keep her snuggle-worthy inside a home. A friend who is a professional groomer mentioned the skin oils were pretty similar to those in Chesapeake Bay Retrievers; it protects the skin and pretty much keeps them waterproof. However, the oils do build up, and aren’t exactly what owners want their dogs to rub on their carpeting and furniture, so the “keep them civilized for indoors,” baths are necessary.
@@patpierce4854 But pigs have hair as their body covering, hair that can be used as bristles for brushes, not fur. How can pigs be "snuggle-worthy"?🤔
@@nanyanghuayi Same as you can snuggle a schnauzer or other dog breeds with wiry hair instead of fur!
@@oakes226 but can the wiry hair of the Schnauzer be used as brush bristles?
I have never heard a pig make noises like this. It’s somehow cute and terrifying at the same time.
It is kinda simmilar when you go to slaughter them
It is kinda simmilar when you go to slaughter them
Those are normal pig noises.
Terrifying.... I think of horror movies esp. Saw series
pretty METAL
Mabel wanted to STAY WITH YOU!!! What a BEAST-CRITTER!!! The whole "THIS ISN'T FAIR!!!" combined with "MMMMM... GOOD SNACKS!" is simply AWESOMENESS!!!
I live on a farm. I've never understood how people can keep pigs that size in their house because I know how they smell. Even if you do wash them, they still smell like pigs. As for doing damage, they can kill... and EAT you. They're absolutely adorable when they're piglets, but as adults, given the chance, they wouldn't think twice about chowing down on your face... But, to each their own.
Exactly, someone finally said it
As someone who works at a sanctuary with potbellies (and larger breeds.. up to 800 lbs!) I know how hard it is to handle a pig. They’re so freaking strong!!! And equally as stubborn. You did a great job with Mabel. She is 100% born with it 💄💋
wow! So you're telling us that animals that can get upwards to 800lbs is super strong! Incredible!
@@Zen-751 even small pigs are very strong
Size and intelligence is quite a combo. All swine are formidable opponents.
I also worked at a sanctuary for a while, and we had two pigs (brothers) who were 400 pounds by the time they were a year old. (Eventually they hit 600 pounds!) Strength plus intelligence meant that they were always trying to break out of their pen-and one day, they actually DID! Thankfully they didnt go far, they just wanted to root in the grass nearby. But my boss had to fix the hole they made in their pen before they could return, so while he did that we sat with the big babies and kept them from rooting too close to our flower garden. They're a handful. But I love piggies so much :)
@@Zen-751 calm down
Next up : "I don't know how i'm going to fit this giraffe in the tub, but despite her objections, we managed to calm her down".
Makes me wonder how they’re gonna put the happy hoodie on her…
funny, but how's she comparable? not even a big pig, smaller than big dogs yet people (not just you) look at her and other comparable pigs and think they're huge... for no apparent reason.
@@inoutdoor4211 it was more about the different species rather than size
You're a gem for grooming her. I love a drama queen, my German shepherd is the same. The vet calls her the diva 😂😂
I love how her people love her and take such good care of her. ❤
I love how she stopped squealing bloody murder the second she was laid in her bed in the backseat at the end 😂
she knew the game was over for her lol
Poor Mabel probably got a face full of cold air when you opened the door and went "NAH I'LL GET BACK IN THE WARM SHOWER THANKS"
Exactly. "Back I go into the warm snack shack, you are not making me go out into that frozen hellscape."
@@kathrynturnbull990 That is probably the funniest thing I've read in the last few days. Thank you for that laugh. 😂
She acts just like how my toddler does when I try to take him home from a fun store. 🤣
This was eye opening. I had no idea that there were people who live with pigs, and sleep together with them.
I like how Mabel has such a cute name and a cute little face, and is just so friend-shaped, but makes noises that sound not unlike a horror game monster
I mean a lotta animals are the voice providers for horror creatures! A few have actually been "voiced" by pigs before, even!
@@exist4046 Like the Mancubus from Doom II for example. They noises they make is actually slowed down pig squealing.
Yeah, beat me to it. A lot of monster sounds have pig squeals mixed in.
Pig squeals and the lower groans (like what she did in the shower) are honestly ghastly. Lol If I heard that in the dark it’d scare the crap outta me.
hahaha i like the title friend shaped
Mabel being carried to the car sounded like a velociraptor attack in Jurassic Park. I love it!
🤣🤣🤣
I wouldn’t be surprised if the sound designer modulated porcine and ursine noises to get that effect!
@@thisiswhatilike54 They actually did. They also used them to make the tornado sound in Twister.
She sounds like she came from the upside down
That's what I'd imagine Hillary Clinton sounds like during an exorcism. Demonic. I kinda wanna buy a pig now, but my dog always tries hunting wild ones so I don't think it'll work.
Many times I don't watch videos all the way (I had no idea that negatively impacted them until today). I have watched every one of yours from beginning to end. This was the best ending ever. What a sweet doll.
I need a teeshirt that says "upset but also food." 😂
“You’re the worst!” “Oh, snacks. Well I still don’t like you!” “Wait, I have to leave? I will not!” Quite a large 160 lb toddler tantrum…
Literally every pig is a toddler. Pigs live 15-20 years (according to google, but I know a pig who is 25 and perfectly healthy...)...living with a pig is quiet literally living with an eternal toddler. My pig is 2. 18 more years of this shit XD No but serious probably one of the hardest pets to take care of but also the most rewarding!
There doing a great job now he will be ready to go on his vacation soon.
they are as intelligent as a toddler too lmao.
@@simpforsupersoldiers how are they like as a pet? All I know is that they're smart but are they stubborn?
@@lishang2653 well, she said they were more intelligent than dogs. Dogs can have the IQ of a 6 year old human and be more intelligent than some human adults. It wouldn’t be difficult to be smarter than a toddler…
Pig owner here. Imagine you have a 3 year child, who also has the strength of a 250lbs man, who is also drunk. That's what owning a pig of even this size is like. They can destroy basically anything, they are scary smart, they can hold a grudge and they are extremely food oriented. Infact, if your pig is _ever_ not interested in food, you have a broken pig. Pigs trotters are not good normally on hardwood floors, you should provide a carpet for them to walk on, if they become spooked(which happens easily) or they step wrong, they can seriously hurt their leg on a slick floor.
That sounds terrible. Why would anyone want that?
As I understand it, after having read your description (which I am sure is very accurate) and watched this video, the reason people want to have pigs as pets must obviously be that they think there is much too little trouble in their life. 😂
@@jeremysmith9694 Probably to be "different"
@@jeremysmith9694 Why would someone want a parrot? Parrots such as cockatoos similar in having the intelligence of a 3 year old plus destruction and enough beak strength to sever a finger. Humans pack bond! We love making things family so its hard not to get attached to the pig who wants to be no where else but in your arms
@@kumakumab I kind of agree but at least parrots are pretty. Seems like a pig is a lose lose however you look at it.
Aww, poor Mable, she was so scared, glad she had a good grooming session with this lady though and her nerves were calmed. Love the little tantrum she had at the end there...too funny! Lol Pigs are too cute
You are so brave, I admire you! Watched many of your videos and this one reminded me when 20 years I got bitten on my leg by a 150 lb pot belly pig named Dudley my neighbor had. I was lucky, his canines had been removed after bitting the gardener and because I was wearing a Lewis Jean that the thickness of the thread provide some protection. It still was schoking, very painful and scary!
Can we take a moment to appreciate how the captions describe Mabels immense screaming as “music”
It's heavy metal
😂
Probably "deathcore" or any of the styles from the -core branch xD since there's a style of singing in those styles literally called "pig squeal"
To someone’s ears 😂
I had captions off, and turned them on just to see this. Omg, I'm dying.🤣
I asked my mom if we could have a pig as a pet after I showed her this video and all she said was she already has one and looked at me lovingly 🤣🤣🤣
Damn RIP
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE 🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣😅
My parents had two half-wildboar pot-bellied pigs (they get them when they were just piglets). The male one grew up around a bit more of one meter in height, and it's weight was more than a hundred kg, with about 12 cm long tusks. It could be a scary sight, when it run up to someone. And it choose to follow the example of my parent's dog - it was about as tall as a dachshund, but otherwise more like a beagle. It was a very small, but really intelligent dog. And it technically trained that piglet, which grew more than 5 times as big as himself to act as a yard-dog. As i said before, the dog was small, and it wasn't an aggressive one, so it rarely scared anyone - but when it begun it's "patrolling" in the yard with that wildboar-like male pig, just a few step away from him, aggressively grunting towards the passersby, there were some surprised reaction... :D
'Girl with the Hogs'
Mabel: (content to eat while being bathed and pampered) Also Mabel: *SCREAMING* NO, LET ME STAY WHERE I AM PAMPERED AND FED!!!
Can’t blame her! 😅
Remember, there is no such thing as a "mini" pig, that's just a pig under 200 pounds at full growth. Most get far larger. A single pig is louder and more demanding than 3 huskies.
So a single pig can take three places of the husky choir in singing their anthem?
@@qwmx If you're looking for sheer noise, sure. But no pig can match the musical talent and range of any husky. Lol

Can resist. This video ended with “a pig in a blanket.” Not quite the same as I remember from my childhood. Mabel was great. Vanessa, your natural ability to watch and assess an animal’s behavior is your super power.
She was rivaling the huskies with her dramatic antics! Mabel was a delight. I look forward to her next groom ☺️🐷💗
So true! I was just commenting she was acting like my akita as well, it made me laugh so hard. She fits right in here with the other dramatic dogs. There won't be a cone of shame in that size though!
👁🐽👁 lol
I grew up with a friend who had a potbelly named Hampton that just roamed his property. He knew basic commands like come, stay, and even sit. Anytime we played outside, which was all the time growing up together, Hampton would come and follow us around. He never really got in the mix of us playing, but would just be near us anytime we were outside. One year, our families were celebrating Easter together. Our Mom's went out and hid eggs for the egg hunt only to find out during that Hampton had gone around and eaten all of the Easter eggs.
HAAMMPTON!!
Seems Hampton won the Easter Egg hunt that year lol
Ha ha ha, bless him!
Oh my 🤣🤣
Do you know what are better than sniffing out truffles than truffle hounds? Pigs. If there was some munch to be had he'll find it much quicker than a bunch of kids searching at random :P
Absolutely unexpected, but absolutely fantastic. I love this channel.
❤ thank you for bringing up greyhound/dog racing. If you adopt one, you'll have a lifelong companion. They are gracious, beautiful hounds
mabel’s screams of absolute anger at being forced to leave made my day. definitely sounded like, “unhand me, you cur! release me this instant or i will unleash a wrath so positively horrendous, you will not live to see tomorrow, i guarantee it!” of course all said in a highly posh accent.
Don't forget stopping in the middle of her tirade because 'oh look food'
As a person who owns a potbelly pigs and works at a farm animal sanctuary... yea that is pretty much what happens
i love your are matching Mables energy so well. hahahahahah

"Upset but also food," My life in a sentence.
LMAO Funny!
She's a beautiful pig! I love seeing all the pets you groom! :)
These little pigs can get so sassy! They know what they want!! Big pink pigs are so sweet! 💕
You've got to stock up when Mabel comes by; she ate the entire time. She didn't mind the make-up or the hoof polish; she's a party girl. Then there's the pig burglar alarm that kicks in when she gets picked up. It was a fun visit.
Burglar alarm 🤣😍😍
She's a ✨💅Material girl💅✨
I literally just imagined her talking in a valley girl accent and getting her nails done like she’s Elle Woods or something. 😂

“Upset but also food” is my life
That is the most touching story…thank you 😍
That’s awesome I think pigs are amazing their so smart and funny. Thanks for grooming this huge animal.
"Upset but also food" is the mood for the year! Congratulations, Vanessa. Didn't think I'd ever see a PIG here on GWTD, but I'm here for it! Mabel looks completely pissed, but...SNACKS. Been there, girl; been there.
Thank you, this made me laugh.

I had a neighbor growing up that had a pot bellied pig. The pig's name was Petunia, and her owner loved to have us kids over to play with Petunia. She would do tricks like playing a toddler's piano with her snout, taking herself for a walk through the house, and ringing bells for dried spaghetti
So Cute 🤗🐖🐷🎹
Yeah but could she fly?

why dried spaghetti specifically? :P
@@UncleSmithers not sure tbh. That was just the treat of choice. It was funny to watch Petunia eat it, too- you'd hold out one end of the strand and she'd snuffle it in like a paper shredder.
Wow it's hard to believe I have been watching your channel for a year! Love it! 😊✌🐩
Wow, well done to you, it seems really difficult and challenging to raise a pig at home. Good luck❤❤❤
A neighbor has a pot belly, LeRoy. You know when he’s getting his nails done, the whole neighborhood knows!🤣. There’s a woman in the region who all she does is pot-belly pig hooves and tusks, because those are the two things a lot of owners just don’t want to tackle.
What does she do to a pigs tusks?
@@lindasimons691 she use a dremmel to trim them. The pig lives in their house and they can hurt or damage someone or thing intentionally or unintentionally with the tusks as they are sharp. Even just brushing a tusk against something can cause a cut or damage. You notice that Mable has no visible tusks. While tusks in the female grow slower than males, she still has them. Her owners are keeping them trimmed short enough so that the are inside of her lips like the rest of her teeth.
@@katherinewilliams2674 Oh my goodness! That sounds quite painful; how do they keep her still?
@@lindasimons691 Its not painful when done correctly. Its similar to trimming nails. There's a pulp to the tusk but they do not cut down to the pulp. So its minorly irritating because they don't like getting groomed, not painful.
@@William_Porter I had no idea this was a thing. Thank you for answering.
Mabel: *sings the song of her people* Huskies: finally, a worthy opponent!
Mabel literally ate thru the entire groom..😂 she was upset you took her food away at the end.
OMG this was sooooo funny, Thankyou so much for the upliftment. Mabel rules. xxxxx
I used to work at a petting zoo when I was a teenager. We had a pig as well, and he was SO DRAMATIC. He had to go inside every night when it was closing time, but he never wanted to, so we kind of had to push him. But whenever someone touched him, he would scream like he was being murdered 😂 Other than that he was super sweet, and always shared his food with the goats.
@Nicky Smit "Super sweet and always shared his food with the goats" ~ Words for the epitaph, those are.
A pig that screamed when touched at the petting zoo!
Holy Crap. I had a Vietnamese Potbelly as a pet when I was a kid and that pig was the calmest animal I had ever had. Totally chill. Never seen a dramatic one before. Of course we never washed it. Just provided it with a pool of clean waters an hot days of summer and it would bath itself quite effectively. In there natural environments pigs are amounts the cleanest animals as they spend a lot of there time keeping cool in water. This is because they do not sweat to keep cool like humans do and there large size makes their bodies good insulators. They need pools of water to keep cool in summer, which are not provided by farmers. In the absence of this, they will use whatever is wet a substitute. On farms, the only sources available to them is their own urine, feces and mud, giving them a reputation of being dirty. Our pig always had a clean pool to hang out in where it spent more then half the day.
This comment is seriously underrated. There are already comments with the replies being debates on cleanliness of pigs. This would enlighten some people
Sounds like you all understood that a pig is a pig & not a funny looking dog or a fashion statement. Good! My family had farm hogs when I was a kid, but I've never had experience with the pet breeds. What did you do for your pig in wintertime? Just curious.
@@yzettasmith4194 We had a small house for it. And I say "it" because we lived on a farm and did not get it initially as a pet so we never bothered to determine it's gender or give it a name. It was initially there to eat up all the food waste left by the other animals as some were sloppy eaters. Anyways, its house was not like a dog house but more like a barn. It wasn't an indoor pig as we only thought of it as a pet after a few years do to it being very sociable. The house we had for it was heated to a comfortable temperature and it did not need or want to be in water in those conditions. It left its area very clean, didn't poop or pee inside it's living space. It would go outside to do it's business in winter but was otherwise in its house. During summer it would only sleep there and would spend the rest of the day outside, mostly in or around the pond.
@@chrixthegreat Nice, very nice comments!
Mabel lives in the house and sleeps in their bed, so not the same situation. Thanks for showing you don’t read other comments tho 😘
I'm in love with a Pig!! When my kids were growing up, I wanted three Newfoundland dogs (we had one, and I noticed Maddy has a St. Bernard) and a pot-bellied pig. Watching her get a bath, eating, and, of course, listening to her people's songs was so wonderful. I am now following her and her finds on Instagram. Thank you for all the good that you do:)
Thanks!
‘Upset but also food’ is exactly the attitude my guineas have when I dry them after a bath. They aren’t called pigs for nothing, it’s just a difference in size and loudness.
Mabel being carried to the car is a pretty accurate reenactment of my friends trying to get me to the taxi after a night out 😂
Hehe 😅
😂
😂😂😂
You've got good friends, don't be an ass and get left somewhere
I love how she argues while eating. that's a mood
My husband: “What are you watching, is that a pig being tortured???” Me: “Yes”
Thank you so much Vanessa, Mabel lowkey loved all the attention and loves feeling clean💖
You're so welcome!!
Mabel and Friends, I hope loads more people head over to your channel because there are some really adorable, hilarious and dramatic Mabel mood videos over there. It’s worth it!
@@leezlvontrapp thank you 🥰
4:04 The instant she touched down in the car, there's complete silence. That was comedy gold!
"PUT ME DOWN HUMANS- ooh car :D"
"Oh shucks, guess I give up"
Epic performance by Mable near the end. ♥️
LOVED this one! You are one brave lady to deal with that thing. No thank you on the pig front - I’ll take a dog any day. Love your videos.😊
I took care of potbellied pigs before, and oh my god the drama. One in particular would freak out like she was being hauled off to the dungeon every time I herded her back into the shed every night. Freenie, this is a comfy straw bed you happily share with two other pigs and you have the run of the place all day STOP SCREAMING.
One time when she was being particularly stubborn, I tapped her with a stick. Freenie immediately flinched and howled like she'd been shot.
My grandma used to say that back when the city was smaller (and the bridges were functional, before the main river got tubed and covered by a very wide street with trees in the middle), an elderly couple used to walk their very large pig and their goose on the weekends. She said they were thrilled to be outside their farm and very well behaved. She didn't know if they were visiting someone on the other side of the river, or if they just went out for a nice walk. Such sweet beautiful animals.
A pig and a goose taking a walk. They would make a great main duo for some British fairytale
I really like how you wrote this
This sounds like a great children’s book. *The Grand Adventures of Pig & Goose!* 😂❤
This is one of my favorite videos on this channel, I think I've watched the ending at least 5-6 times 😆
