Just because a person or animal looks different than most others, it doesn’t mean they deserve any less love, companionship or kindness. Pig is a Chow-mix with a rare condition called “short spin syndrome,” resulting in no neck and disproportionate torso length, this sweet girl has an energetic affectionate personality, despite the physical challenges she faces.
Pig often has to hop around like a bunny due to her condition, and basic things that many other dogs can do easily, like scratching an itch, prove difficult for her. Still, that doesn’t take away from this pup’s sweet-natured enthusiasm. At just 1 year old, Pig is training to become a therapy dog! So amazing that a dog with her own challenges is excited to be spreading joy to others around her.
