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.”

“Frida’s Journey of Redemption: From Tragedy to Triumph for a Devoted Mother and Her Nine Puppies”
Frida, a devoted mama dog, embarked on a perilous journey in search of food, only to meet with a tragic car accident. The impact left her front leg broken, causing excruciating pain.
However, Frida’s plight was magnified by the fact that she was not alone—she was caring for nine delicate puppies, merely ten days old, who were battling their own battle against weakness and malnourishment, plagued by anemia.
Faced with such dire circumstances, Frida’s owner attempted to alleviate her suffering by using plants to splint her broken leg. But his efforts proved insufficient, leaving Frida in prolonged agony.
Adding to her misery, a thick rope was tightly bound around her neck, a cruel tether used by her owner to confine her, all while concealing his cruel actions from the watchful eyes of the villagers. Perhaps it was shame that drove him to hide his disgraceful treatment of the faithful creature.
However, as fate would have it, a glimmer of hope emerged for Frida and her nine precious puppies. A group of compassionate rescuers arrived on the scene, extending a helping h and and a caring heart.
