Potbellied pig question!?

Question

Hey, I have an adult Potbellied Pig. I got him in December, so he's about a year and a bit old. He needs some excercise because he's getting fat :) Also, he's not very social, except with my other pets- mostly the dog. He follows the ducks around the yard. He used to with the dog too. I need to know how to get him to follow me, because I want to take him for walks to help him lose a little bit of weight, and become more social. Please help me. Also, he can't fit in a harness without screaming to the top of his little piggy lungs, or without it taking like an hour to get the darn thing off of him! Haha, please help me! Thanks! :}

I have 4 potbellied pigs, if you want to coll them pigs. Mine weigh between  150 and 200lbs. each.  So they aren't full potbellied pigs.  Coax him with his favorite treat, they normally will follow it and after a wile they will follow you because they think they will get the treat.  Mine will follow me if I have a bucket of feed, a loaf of bread, carrots, or even grapes.   Some times all I have to do is call them.  Good luck 2u.
