 Jeremy Acosta is a sleezy pushy salesman for underage, unweaned, and sick piglets. He tells everyone they should have one and they're easy to care for when that is a COMPLETE LIE! These exploited piglets are taken away from their mother way too young and are unweaned. The piglets become sick very easily and if you can afford the vet bill after spending $1500 to $5000 for one of his pigs you're lucky. Some pigs he sells aren't so lucky and they die. Once you have a problem with the pig and try to reach him he avoids you and doesn't answer his phone, his voicemail box is full, and ignores his texts/emails. He only cares about selling you the pig and his business reputation. He gets combative when you call him out and deletes any negative online comments. There is no health certificate that comes with his pigs and the supposed parents of the pigs looks emaciated, lethargic, and almost dead. The poor pig Cooper most certainly looks sad to be alive by the video he recently posted. It is underfed and malnourished. You ask to see his breeding area and he never shows it as if he may actually just be a broker for these poor helpless animals. He doesn't screen any of his buyers and they have no idea what they're getting themselves into. Most certainly the pigs are shipped off and he's done with you. He has a ridiculous 3 page care sheet and doesn't mention anything about if the pig is drinking milk, which you shouldn't even be dealing with but it's happened. He recommends something that is completely wrong instead of goats milk. There's no way he's been in business for 12 years because I know of another breeder that he tried to buy a breeding pair from just 2 years ago. 12 years ago Jeremy would only be about 15 as he's very young and unknowledgeable, but a cocky salesman. He is pure greed and should be ashamed for what he's doing to these poor piggies. Put him out of business. Quit feeding into his lies about these poor sad piglets.

PayPal to get your money back

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Friday, September 08, 2017

 If you paid through PayPal for the pig go through them for the refund. Don't give in either. They may deny it, but if you push it they will refund you. I ended up getting in touch with a Vice President and they were actually compassionate. If they refund enough people maybe they'll get rid of Jeremy Acosta as a client. He's despicable.

Jeremy sold me an UNWEANED sick pig

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Sunday, August 27, 2017

 The is absolutely no reason for me to lie about this. I wouldn't waste my time. I have much more important and meaningful things to do than go back and forth to prove I purchased a pig from Jeremy Acosta. He advertised the piglet when she was only a few days old. He first tried dropping her off to me at 2 weeks old and drove half way to my home and then proceeds to text me saying she wasn't eating solids, so he would try weaning her and bring her in a couple of more weeks. This was a one of a few red flags I should've paid attention to. He has such a way of advertising and saying owning a pig is easy as owning a dog which is complete bs. I've since joined many pig owners blogs and pigs are NOTHING like dogs. They are like owning a 2 year old brat that never grows up. If you think or say otherwise, you're delusional and lying. He is just looking to make fast and easy money by selling these poor little baby pigs. He then texted me a couple of weeks later and tells me she's weaned. Well, he drives to my house and arrives at 10pm on a Sunday and she's STILL not weaned. Jeremy tells me, you need to buy colostrum at the feed store...what? Another lie. She's NOT WEANED and there's no vet certificate. So the situation goes on and I find out she shouldn't be eating colostrum but goats milk. And she had massive diarrhea. $1500 in vet bills later, she was SICK when he dropped her off. I read up a ton on pigs and Jeremy had no assistance to offer. He stopped taking my calls and went straight to voicemail that was full! If you look up his name, I'm not the only one that takes issue with his sales tactics. He's on YouTube selling his sales tactics. He's a disgusting greedy person.

Hello, my friend recently purchased a pig from minipigworld and received a piglet of the wrong gender with improper certification. Amongst other things. How did you go about getting your money back? Any advice would be appreciated.

Already have proved that Jeremy is a GREEDER

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, July 26, 2017

I've already taken up with Jeremy his lack of care and knowledge of pigs. He brought me a sick and unweaned pig. I don't need to upload personal documents that prove this as I fought it with him and succeeded. I have nothing to prove to you, because I've already been vindicated by receiving my money back and that's proof enough. Immediately after dropping the pig off, he told me to go to the store and buy colostrum which is COMPLETELY WRONG! I fed the pig every couple of hours goats milk which he NEVER mentioned. I received help from other young pig owners that all knew of his sales tactics and lack of knowledge. It was HIS FAULT the pig was brought to me WAY TOO YOUNG. I spent the $1500 to try and save this innocent pig that was RIPPED AWAY FROM IT'S MOM WAY TOO EARLY! It was only 3 weeks or when she was brought to me. He actually sold the pig to me when it was only 3 days old! That is being HUGELY irresponsible as a breeder. You are obviously either connected with Jeremy somehow to come at me the way you are, probably because things are finally coming down on him seeing that his website is disabled. Maybe PETA and the IRS finally got a hold of him. Thank goodness he'll have to find something else (hopefully not a living creature) to pull his lies and used car salesman tactics on. By trying to call me out is only proving my point further because it's been documented where it needs to be of his disgusting behavior.

Still lying? Why do you hate Jeremy so much?

AUTHOR: PigMomLady - (USA)

POSTED: Wednesday, July 26, 2017

 Honestly, if you paid 1500$ for a piglet and it became ill after getting to YOU? How is that his responsiblity?....Once a piglet leaves the farm, and is in the new owners possession IT IS THE OWNERS responsiblity. Don't blame or get angry and vindictive against someone just because maybe YOU aren't fit to be a pig parent. I've only had amazing experiences with Jeremy and his employees. Again I own 2 piglets from him of 2 different ages and 2 different set of parents, again of which he showed me. Oh and darling, getting offered to see farms means NOTHING for legitimacy. There are tons of breeders on the Ampa and Juliana registry sites that use THAT as their selling tactic, lower pricing and being able to see their farm/breeder grounds etc AND THOSE breeders are full of sh* liars like your claiming Jeremy to be when he's not. Jeremy explained to me WHY they don't allow farm visitors anymore and it is compliment a legit reasoning. People LIKE YOU, who are crazy would abuse your right of having that address and probably harass him and his family. It's not wrong for him to want safety for himself and the pigs but alright, continue the petty arguement.... If your new piglet got sick or died or almost died once in YOUR possession that is on YOU. Every pig breeder has that fine print, so again maybe you should read. This all sounds like an entirely YOU problem, and even petty to jump on here and try to derail one of the few trust worthy breeders. Now if your pet didn't die, and is now healthy even more reason why you come off petty and full of bullsh*. If in the end nothing tragic happened then wth? Sorry if you can't afford vet bills for an animal, then maybe you shouldnt have purchased such an expensive pet. Personally I think it's pure ignorance to take your anger out on the breeder when you should just be angry at yourself. Oh and ps, Jeremy DOES NOT GIVE YOU A PIGLET IF IT STILL NEEDS MILK THAT NEVER HAPPENS SO YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY A LIAR! Wow, sad for people to act like you..... I'm actually embarrassed for you. Show us proof that YOUR piglet came from them, what her vet actually said and then MAYBE I'd believe at least that part of your story, but at this point your completely debunked

FYI I did own one of his pigs!

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, July 26, 2017

 Actually I DID own one of his pigs that ended up almost dying. It was UNWEANED AND SICK. He dropped it off with NO VET HEALTH CHECKUP like he says he will and it was still on goats milk. It cost me over $1500 in vet care within days after he dropped it off. Don't stick up for that lying greeder! He's a 27 year old liar. He knows nothing about pigs and has only sold them for about 3 years, but lies and says he's been in business for 15 years. Do the math, he would be 12, 15 years ago! He is NOT located in Calabasas and won't give you HIS REAL address of where he breeds his pigs. I think he's a broker. Ask to see his facility and he won't let you. All reputable BREEDERS will let you visit their breeding facility. I know the breeder he tried to purchase his original pigs from to mate and she refused to sell to him. In fact she's received MANY of Jeremy's pigs because he claims they will be "micro" and there's NO SUCH THING! Get educated on the terms and come at me in a few years when your pigs are over 100 pounds... GET A CLUE.

This Report IS BS. COMPLETE LIES

AUTHOR: PigMomLady - (USA)

POSTED: Wednesday, July 26, 2017

 This report is complete bulls* from someone who obviously has never dealt with or purchased a pig from mini pig world. I myself have 2 piglets from them. One is now 10 months old and the other is coming home this week at 2 months old. I know exactly when these piglets were born because I was sent photos and told, and kept up to date with video and photos to see growth and ability. It's INSANE for this woman to write such a bogus report when she has NEVER purchased a mini pig from such a great breeder. I have had nothing but an incredible experience. When my first piglet (my baby girl) first came home she was difficult at first but that can happen with ANY CREATURE, they require adjustment time NO creature should be expected to be perfect.....but when I had issues Jeremy was right there to answer any questions. He even face timed with me to help teach me the proper way to pick my piglet up. JEREMY IS A GREAT MINI PIG BREEDER! There are tons of proof on Instagram of his piglets and their parents. You can see their growth is healthier than ANY OTHER MINI PIGLET FROM OTHER BREEDERS! Jeremy explains how and WHEN to increase their food when they've reached each stage of important growing stages. At 6 months he told me to increase and change the food for my baby girl, NO OTHER BREEDER DOES THAT! Trust me, I spoke with so many before choosing and I became friends with other mini pig owners to hear enough about the breeder they went to and the mistakes.....Jeremy Acosta is top of the class in mini pig breeding. If you have an issue with a piglet THAT IS YOUR OWN ISSUE. He can't change a piglets personality, but you as the owner should learn to love their personality instead of point Fingers and wrongfully blame others just because YOU ARENT FIT TO BE A PIG PARENT. Bottom line their great breeders, and NOTHING LIKE THESE BOGUS REVIEWS SAY! Proof is available online on Instagram. Honestly his pigs are the healthiest I've ever seen. I just recently saw a pig from a Arizona breeder who instructs in starvation feeding....yet is claimed as the most favored breeder out there.....so again, stop with the bogus lies you don't even own a pig from them and have 0 clue what your talking about. Mini pig world is great! I speak from experience! And PS. Their pigs are true to their predicted sizes! My little girl is 10 months, 10 pounds and very healthy plump! She's perfect size and growing at a steady pace she had a growth spurt around 6months and hasn't had another since. She is half micro of which again JEREMY TOLD ME she was only half micro! So where is he untrustworthy?! Oh yah, he's not! He's a great and trustworthy breeder.
