It’s well known that pigs are incredibly smart and just as easy to train as dogs. Hoofin’ It, a mobile, sedation-free hoof care service for pet pigs in the Pacific Northwest, knows that better than anyone. Owner Sarah is passionate about “mini” pigs and dedicated to keeping them healthy and happy, and she clearly has a special bond with them.
In a TikTok she shared, Sarah shows off one of her pigs’ adorable tricks: rolling onto his back for belly rubs! She extends her arms, palms up, and motions for him to come closer. What he does next is both impressive and super adorable!
We love Sarah’s video caption, “Just a little piggy magic!” It certainly was; it was the last thing we expected to see. Now we want a pet pig so we can teach them this trick!
