Abstract
The care of pet pigs and pigs in small holdings can be challenging, as pigs are less commonly seen in general veterinary practice. Although, the majority of health problems in pigs require only basic veterinary care. This article discusses the most likely clinical presentations and outlines several of the more serious conditions in pigs, such as the threat posed by infectious diseases such as African swine fever. Effective communication between vets and owners is very important in the care of pigs and this article also highlights how this can be maintained. It is also important to note that members of the Pig Vet Society are always willing to help colleagues through the more difficult cases
