A little pig named “Snoop Hogg” has taken gone viral after it was found wandering the streets in Pennsylvania.

The Sanctuary at Haafsville says the pig was found in the Philadelphia area.

While they normally don’t take pigs in, Snoop Hogg became an exception after it was discovered all area pig rescues were full.

It was feared that Snoop was being used at bait for dog fighting rings.

He was treated by vets for an eye issue and other behavioral issues.

Snoop Hogg has been vaccinated, neutered and received medication for mange.

He became the office pig where workers helped with potty training and walking with a harness.

The six-month old pig will be close to 100 lbs. when he is fully grown.

“Pigs are very smart and need companionship,” the animal rescue in Breinigsville. “He loves to snuggle under his blankets at night and loves to go for long walks in the woods. Pigs are not for everyone. Know what you are getting into. Ideally, he would like to be an indoor pig with a big fenced yard to play in. A pig friend would be lovely.”

The sanctuary hopes the attention Snoop Hogg is getting will shine a light on the overwhelming number of dogs, cats and even pigs that need rescued across the state and country.
