More than 27,000 people have joined a fans’ group in honour of the strange-looking animal, who is quickly becoming one of Alabama’s biggest stars.
Pig, who bears little resemblance to the curly-tailed farmyard animal, suffers from short spine syndrome and has bones that are fused together.
Her condition causes her to walk like a gorilla and she often loses her balance, toppling over like a toddler.
But she is not letting her disability get her down and her adventures are chronicled on a Facebook page called Pig the Unusual Dog.
Kim Dillenbeck, who adopted Pig after finding her in a forest, said her pet is “living life to the fullest”.
“She’s missing several inches of her spine (and) her joints, her hips … none of them are in the right position,” she added.
Dr Rachael Hudson-Breland, the vet who treats Pig, said the eight-month-old mutt is given “rock star” treatment at her clinic.
“I don’t think Pig really knows she looks different,” she said.
“She runs around, she plays. The only thing with Pig is … she has respiratory issues, so when she’s running around she gets a little more tired than most dogs.”
Pit Bull Is Patiently Waiting In Line To Purchase Ice Cream
This pit bull with a sweet appetite does the same thing you did as a child when you heard the music from the ice cream truck arriving.
When an ice cream truck arrived at her house, she was ecstatic.
When her mother arrived with some cash, she hurried over to the truck, took her place in line, sat down, and waited.
When it was their turn, the puppy sat close to the window and watched her mother give them the money. She then saw what she had been hoping to see.
When the mother of the pit bull offered her the ice cream, she quickly devoured it all and proceeded in search of more.
Hey, don’t criticize a woman for trying!
