Shipping a 8-3/4 center
If it is going to Canada it may have the same restrictions as other international shipping. I have shipped a few of them to holland. They are too heavy and I have to take them apart and make two shippments to get them there. You may want to check weight restrictions to Canada first. They are likely different then an in country shipment. Other then that, if you get a box that is big enough for the pig and put the pig in the box filled with peanuts and then put that box inside a slightly larger box and use good strong tape to tape a "net" around the box you won't have any problems.
