This week on The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn takes on one of the most emotional and misunderstood topics in the pig world: Can you support both rescues and ethical breeders? For many people, the words "breeder" and "rescue" feel like opposing sides of a battle, but Autumn makes the case that both are not only important—they are absolutely necessary for the future of pet pigs. In this heartfelt and informative episode, Autumn unpacks why breeders as a whole often carry such a negative reputation. She shares her frustration with the many bad breeders who mislead families with myths about "teacup" or "micro" pigs, starve piglets to keep them small, or breed irresponsibly without any regard for health, temperament, or quality of life. These unethical practices have fueled mistrust and left countless families heartbroken—and countless pigs surrendered to rescues. But Autumn also highlights the vital role ethical breeders play in protecting and preserving the future of mini pigs. Ethical breeders carefully select pairings with health, size consistency, and temperament in mind. They raise piglets with intention, provide proper weaning and care, require spay and neuter contracts, and offer lifetime support to families. With only a handful of registered breeders in the United States compared to hundreds of rescues, the balance is fragile—and without ethical breeders, the genetic line of mini pigs would quickly deteriorate. On the other side of the conversation, Autumn shines a light on rescues and the indispensable work they do. Rescues step in for pigs who have been abandoned, neglected, hoarded, or given up when families were misled about size or care needs. They provide medical care, spay and neuter surgeries, food, shelter, and love to pigs who otherwise might not survive. Yet rescues face overwhelming challenges too: financial strain, the high cost of pig feed and veterinary care, the need for strong fencing and enrichment, and in some cases, the heartbreaking reality of becoming overwhelmed or unable to provide proper care. What Autumn challenges listeners to see is that it doesn't have to be an either/or choice. Ethical breeders and ethical rescues are not enemies—they are allies. Breeders safeguard the future of the mini pig by raising healthy, well-adjusted piglets and educating families before adoption. Rescues protect the pigs who fall through the cracks, giving them a second chance at life. When both are supported, pigs win. If you've ever felt pressured to "pick a side" between adopting or buying from a breeder, this episode will encourage you to rethink that black-and-white perspective. It's not about choosing rescue or breeder—it's about supporting those who are doing right by pigs, no matter their role. By working together, rescues and ethical breeders can create a stronger, healthier, and more compassionate future for pigs everywhere.

Despite all her research, she quickly learned that nothing can truly prepare you for the reality of living with a pig. With humor and candor, she talks about Chucky's early days: the high energy, stubbornness, and surprisingly human-like intelligence that make pigs both challenging and deeply rewarding companions.          Autumn and Ariana discuss what many new pig parents experience but rarely talk about — the messy, emotional, and wonderful learning curve of pig ownership.

In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn takes you step by step through what to expect in the very first week with your new piglet and how to set them (and yourself) up for success.           Autumn shares practical tips for preparing your home before your piglet arrives, including how to set up a safe starter space that feels like a nursery, not a prison. She explains the basics of litter box training, why patience is key when your piglet seems skittish or squeals when touched, and how to avoid unintentionally reinforcing whining or destructive behaviors. You'll also learn why teaching independence from the start is one of the greatest gifts you can give your piglet—and how ignoring attention-seeking behaviors actually builds confidence and calm.           This episode also tackles common struggles like accidents, fear-based squealing, and even early biting tendencies, with solutions that focus on patience, consistency, and understanding. Autumn emphasizes that none of these challenges mean you're failing as a pig parent—they're simply normal stepping stones in your piglet's adjustment period.            If you're preparing to bring home a piglet, or if you've just started your journey and feel unsure about the squeals, messes, or setbacks, this episode will encourage you, equip you with tools, and remind you that your piglet doesn't need you to be perfect—just patient. With the right start, you'll build a strong foundation for a happy, confident, lifelong companion.

https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs          In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn takes a step outside the usual world of pet pigs to review Joel Salatin's book The Marvelous Pigness of Pigs. While Salatin writes from the perspective of a regenerative farmer raising pigs for food, his core message resonates with all pig people: pigs deserve the right to fully express their “pigness.”           Autumn unpacks Salatin's big ideas—why rooting, foraging, wallowing, and exploring are essential to a pig's wellbeing—and connects them directly to life with pet pigs.

  https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs/p/preparing-for-a-new-piglet                  In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn takes listeners on a thoughtful exploration of one of the most common yet most misunderstood piglet behaviors: rooting. We all know piglets root for food, for warmth, or just because it's instinct — but what if there's more happening beneath the surface? What if rooting is not just a survival behavior, but also a powerful tool for bonding, comfort, and brain development?          Autumn draws fascinating connections between piglets and human infants, showing how both species use rooting, nursing, and touch to regulate emotions, build trust, and shape healthy brain chemistry. From dopamine and oxytocin — the “feel-good” chemicals of bonding — to the way gentle handling, warmth, and predictability can impact a piglet's lifelong behavior, this episode sheds light on the deeper meaning behind those tiny snouts pushing into blankets, littermates, or even your lap.          Listeners will also hear why piglets who are pulled from their mothers too early sometimes grow up a little “off” — more anxious, more demanding, or more unsettled — and how this may be linked to missing out on the natural cycle of comfort and reward that rooting provides. Autumn discusses the importance of understanding rooting not as a “bad habit,” but as a window into a piglet's emotional world, much like a human baby's cry for closeness or the comfort they find in a pacifier.         This episode is a blend of science, observation, and heart — part educational deep dive, part reflection on the universal needs we all share for safety, love, and connection. Whether you're raising a piglet, preparing to bring one home, or simply curious about the hidden science of behavior, this conversation will give you a fresh appreciation for how much is happening in those early days of a pig's life.   Autumn's Links:  Website: https://www.autumnacresminipetpigs.com/ Email: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs Educational Membership Group: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs/p/autumn-acres-educational-membership-group Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/autumnacresminipetpigs/ Facebook:  HTTP://Facebook.com/autumnacresminipetpigs Free Community: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs/p/autumn-acres-free-community YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCGue5Kp5AwOXkReCGPUyImA Stan Store: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs Newsletter: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigsb

https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs/p/autumn-acres-educational-membership-group-copy          In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn shines a spotlight on one of the most critical yet often overlooked parts of pig parenting: pig proofing your home and yard. Many new pig parents underestimate just how curious, determined, and strong pigs are, which can quickly turn everyday household items into serious hazards. Autumn explains why pig proofing matters by comparing pigs to toddlers with hooves—they explore with their snouts, can open cabinets, and will chew or swallow things you'd never expect.           Inside the home, she walks listeners through the most common dangers, from medications, supplements, and toxic foods (like xylitol and salt-heavy pet foods), to houseplants, electrical cords, rugs, carpets, baseboards, cleaning chemicals, and small choking hazards like batteries, coins, and toys. Outside, she covers fencing that's truly pig-proof, toxic landscaping plants, lawn chemicals, standing water, and how to balance safe mud wallows with avoiding stagnant puddles that harbor parasites and bacteria.          Autumn also shares practical strategies for setting up a safe space—whether that's a pig-proofed room in your house, a gated area, or a secure outdoor pen with shade and shelter. She discusses flooring options, enrichment ideas, and why supervision is so important in those early weeks.          This episode is full of practical tips, real-world examples, and straightforward advice to help pig parents keep their homes safe without feeling overwhelmed. Whether you're preparing for your very first piglet or improving the environment for the pig you already love, this guide will help you avoid common mistakes, protect your pig from preventable dangers, and give you peace of mind knowing your home and yard are truly safe.

Leadership can feel like stepping onto a battlefield: criticism, burnout, doubt, and temptation can leave you feeling exposed. But God hasn't left you defenceless. In this episode, I unpack the full armor of God from Ephesians 6 and show how each piece can strengthen your leadership journey. You'll discover: How the belt of truth grounds your leadership in integrity Why the breastplate of righteousness protects your motives and credibility What it means to walk in the shoes of peace, even during conflict How to use the shield of faith to deflect doubt, criticism, and gossip Why the helmet of salvation is key to overcoming imposter syndrome How the sword of the Spirit equips you to lead with clarity and authority This is a daily practice that equips you to lead with confidence, wisdom, and grace. Whether you're walking into a tough meeting or leading through seasons of uncertainty, the armor of God will help you stand firm. Prayer prompts mentioned in the episode: 1. The Belt of Truth (Ephesians 6:14) “Lord, fasten me with Your truth today. Guard me from lies and half-truths. Let everything I say and do as a leader be rooted in Your Word.” 2. The Breastplate of Righteousness (Ephesians 6:14) “Lord, cover my heart with Your righteousness. Protect me from pride, fear, or compromise. Help me to lead with integrity even when no one is watching.” 3. Shoes of the Gospel of Peace (Ephesians 6:15) “Lord, fit my feet with Your peace. Help me walk into every situation as a peacemaker, not a peacekeeper. Let others sense Your presence through me.” 4. The Shield of Faith (Ephesians 6:16) “Lord, strengthen my faith today. Help me to hold up the shield when doubts, gossip, or fear come my way. I trust in Your promises.” 5. The Helmet of Salvation (Ephesians 6:17) “Lord, protect my mind with the assurance of salvation. Guard me from discouragement and self-doubt. Fill my thoughts with Your truth.” 6. The Sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17) “Lord, equip me with Your Word as my sword. Let Scripture be on my lips, guiding my decisions and encouraging my team.” 7. Prayer (The Power Behind the Armor) (Ephesians 6:18) “Lord, help me to pray in the Spirit at all times. Cover my leadership with Your strength and wisdom. Make me alert, faithful, and Spirit-led.” Reflection: Which piece of armor do you most often forget to “put on”? How would your leadership change if you prayed through the armor each morning? What battle are you facing right now that requires God's protection, not just your effort? Ready to go deeper?
