Most hogs that have an issue with something – eg like your strimmer cuts, are likely to have internal parasites that have got out of hand as stress can make them worse.
For anyone taking a hog to a carer/vet I would strongly advise you ask them to check for parasites immediately as these are often the silent killer and not the reason you’ve taken the hog in the first place
Not all carers/vets have a lot of experience with hogs and would probably welcome any thoughts. Those with lots of experience shouldn’t be offended as you both only have the hogs best interests at heart
