MD-Talbot Humane-boar

LISTING REMOVED. Talbot Humane doesn't generally have guinea pigs, or at least this shelter doesn't advertise it. But they have a boar in now who they just posted today on PetHarbor, PetHarbor is a search engine like Petfinder. You can find Jerico, the Talbot Humane boar, by looking up his ID number: A006451. He is orange and white, and his age is unknown. It seems like he just came in today though. If they post a picture I'll update.

* If responding to a Craigslist ad meet in a public place, or go with a friend. Google the phone number of the poster to ensure it matches the name he or she gives *

ETA: This ad has also been posted on GPAN.

LISTING EXPIRED. Gaithersburg, MD: two boars being dumped. They are one year old and one and a half years old. They come with a large cage, food dish and water containers, "play pen type thing" and "travel box." Also any food or bedding left over. If you want the boars you have to tell them what other pets you have -- note, bunchers have lots of pets! And also the ability to lie! You have to pick them up from the poster's home. Not that this couldn't be legitimate, but especially heed the Craigslist warning for this instance.
