(I can say that. I'm a Tennesseean.)
LOL, years ago I heard a knock at the door. When I opened the door a very large white hog ran in. We ran him back out. We tried to run him off but he wouldn't go. We went all over the neighborhood trying to find out who owned him but since it was summer and garden season nobody would claim him. We live on a farm so we put him up, fattened him up some more, and put him in the freezer.
He was extremely tame but not a pet. Most people I know that have pet pigs have the smaller ones and they decorate them with collars, harnesses, walk them on leashes, and generally treat them like a dog. Pigs aren't my idea of a pet but I don't have a problem with other people having them.
