Maha sarakham: Let's take a look at the adorable "Nong Sading," a miniature pig that is the beloved pet of Don Wiang Chan village, Tha Khon Yang subdistrict, Kantharawichai district, Maha Sarakham province. At Ban Don Wiangchan, Village No. 10, Tha Khon Yang Subdistrict, Kantharawichai District, Maha Sarakham Province, Mrs. Supaporn Phiuleuang, or "Pee Nok," the owner of 4-year-old Sading, is bathing Sading in preparation for her afternoon nap. After the bath, Pee Nok places a pillow in the corner of the stairs, calls Sading to her usual spot, and then places another pillow under her head. Soon, the soft snoring of Sading can be heard.
According to Thai News Agency, Nok recounted that she bought Sading, a female Potbelly pig, four years ago for 1,600 baht from a farm in Kalasin Province. The farm told her Sading was a female "miniature pig" of the Potbelly breed. When she received her, Sading was about a month old and weighed approximately 2-3 kilograms.
The reason we bought her was because my daughter went to a Red Cross fair and saw them feeding miniature pigs, and she thought they were cute. When she first arrived, she ran around the village, and people had to help hold her down because we were afraid she'd get bitten by dogs. But after 4-5 months, Sading grew very quickly, so we think she's probably not a miniature pig anymore. Now, Sading probably weighs at least 200 kilograms. But because of our bond and Sading's intelligence and cuteness-she's getting better and better at understanding what we say-when she needs to pee, she...
The origin of the nickname stems from her adorable chubby appearance; relatives and neighbors would often ask, "At what time will Nong Sading turn into a dwarf pig?" This became a humorous topic of conversation that continues to this day.
