Swine, hog, boar, sow, bacon factory, porker and hog are all words to describe a pig. But Pat Brown of Prince George's County Maryland calls her pig Gwendolyn. More importantly to Pat, Gwendolyn is a member of her family.
Pat got Gwendolyn the pot belly pig in 1990 as a pet for her children. Well, the children are grown and moved out of the house, but Gwendolyn is still with Pat, living out the last months of her very long piggy life.
But all of a sudden the long arm of the law -- or at least the PG County zoning board -- reached out, not to pet Gwendolyn but to throw her out. It seems that after 20 years the Board didn't think it was a good idea for a pig to mingle with people.
