Checkers the pig in search of forever home: Bay Area SPCA
Checkers the pig is available for adoption at the Peninsula SPCA. It was a first for KTVU's Andre Senior who never had a chance to pet a pig before. Pigs are social, much like dogs, but the SPCA says pigs need a good-sized yard and you will need access to veterinary care. It should also be noted that pigs like to root around in the dirt and wallow in the mud.
