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.”
Abandoned Dog Cry Nonstop For Days, Looking At Each Car & Hoping Owner Would Come Back To Pick Her
This is Peggy! She was left on the side of the road for nearly three days.
Peggy was dumped like waste in this lonely landscape, with little prospect of survival. Her family, whom she loved and trusted, abandoned her.
For three days, she wailed, staring at each automobile in the hope that the owner would come to take her up. Of course, no one stopped to help the baby.
Monica Popovici, a gentle woman, came to a halt. And which woman, she is a dog lover who even has her own dog shelter.
“I heard her crying, and my heart broke. I had loved her since the first moment I met her. I assured her I loved her and that I would never leave her alone again. She had faith in me. I’m overjoyed that I took her to the vet. This adorable infant is now mine.” Monica stated
Peggy is OK and will be picked up the next day. Monica’s hand was constantly kissed by the sweet little kid. After a few days, she is feeling better and enjoying her time with other dogs.
She now leads a happy life full of friends and a wonderful owner.
