Are pet potbelly pigs legal in Calgary?
This is from the City of Calgary’s Pet Ownership ByLaw: Potbellied Pigs Calgarians are advised not to acquire any new potbellied pigs as they are not permitted under the Responsible Pet Ownership Bylaw. Potbellied pigs acquired prior to March 2006 may be permitted, provided that the animal is appropriately cared for, and that keeping the animal does not pose any environmental concerns or nuisances in the neighbourhood. Complaints arising about potbellied pigs will be dealt with on a case by case basis. I’m pretty sure this answers your question in full. There is the grey area for those owners who acquired them before March 2006 but you cannot acquire any new ones after that time.
