Mrs. Piggy has some competition!
A 550-pound pig called Boris is being given a facelift after attempts to fatten him up failed to stop his rolls of loose skin covering his eyes.
“When he lost weight he totally couldn’t see. We’ve had to let him put weight back on again so he can see a bit.”
When his owners, Cane and Julie, bought Boris, they were told he was a miniature breed and wouldn’t grow to be more than 132 pounds.
Boris was the runt of his litter – he used to walk under the belly of the Cane’s family dog, Boof.
Now, Boris enjoys being a celeb in his home town of Rosewater, Australia, and although he sometimes brings mud into the house, the Canes said the pig is toilet-trained and “cleaner than the dogs.”
