Meet Porky, the lovable pig who captured hearts with his journey from obesity to finding a loving home. This is his story, shared by his caring owners, Graham and his family.
Porky’s tale began when he was bought from a breeder in Virginia by a couple who, unfortunately, couldn’t keep him for long. They believed he had many health issues, but it turned out he was just overweight. Eventually, he found himself at a special agency called South of the Bully, where they initially mistook him for a potbelly pig due to his massive size.

Graham and his family were looking to adopt a third dog to join their household, and when they saw Porky’s picture, they knew he was the perfect fit. Despite his past struggles, Porky exuded sweetness, confidence, and a quirky personality that won them over instantly.
As Porky settled into his new home, he formed a special bond with Graham, refusing to leave his side. He even made peculiar sounds resembling a baby’s cries when excited, which baffled daycare staff but amused his family endlessly.
Porky’s story intertwines with the tales of other beloved pets in Graham’s family, like Athena and Diamond, each with their unique backgrounds and quirks. Despite their past hardships, they found solace and love in their new family, forming inseparable bonds.
Adopting Porky and his furry siblings brought immense joy to Graham’s family, especially during the tumultuous times of 2020. Porky, with his tiny legs and larger-than-life personality, became a source of laughter and love, making every moment memorable.
From his comical reactions to food to his intimidating appearance that melts hearts upon closer acquaintance, Porky is a testament to the incredible personality and love that bully breeds possess.
In the end, Porky’s journey teaches us that with patience, love, and acceptance, even the most unexpected companions can become cherished members of the family.
