Someobody lost a piglet and Oregon State Police, responding to a report that it was a dog running along I-5, say, “There were no identifying collars, tags, or information on the pig to assist in notifying the owner” of the piglet.  That’s right, a pig with no ID.

Here’s to hoping the little piggie goes, “Wah wah wah all the way home.”

On June 21, 2016 at approximately 10:15 pm, OSP received the report of a dog running southbound in the northbound median of Interstate near MP 191 south of Eugene (between Franklin and Glenwood).

Troopers arrived in the area and discovered the animal reported was not a dog but a piglet. The female piglet is approximately 30 to 40 pounds in size and white with black spots. It is estimated she is approximately 3 to 5 weeks old. There were no identifying collars, tags, or information on the pig to assist in notifying the owner. The pig was taken into custody and transported to the 1st Avenue Animal Shelter in Eugene.

The owner is asked to call the OSP Springfield Area Command at 541-726-2536 or the 1st Ave Shelter (Greenhill Humane Society) at 541-844-1606.
