Big Precious



The wind didn't blow us away and it's a slow news morning.  This isn't the biggest piggy in the world, but Chinese farmer Zhang Xianping decided to keep "Big Precious" when he reached 1,323 pounds-- more than most horses weigh. He is 3 feet high and 9 feet long.  Precious is completely unafraid of humans, and in fact Zhang rides him like a horse around his home town.


In porcine news closer to home, it sounds like little Amy Trotter is all grown up. I heard she weighs "about" 100 pounds now, but that hasn't been confirmed. No girl wants to admit her weight.  Amy still attends weekly canine obedience classes with Lori, although due to her mature figure, the weaving action has slowed down quite a bit.

There's a rumor that she will perform at a local horse show soon.  That might be interesting.  Horses don't like pigs for the same reason they don't like wild boars and wolves. Carnivores.
