Mud phobic pig


Although I originally intended to write a post for today that had nothing to do with animals, I stumbled on this and couldn’t resist: a pig that supposedly suffers mysophobia, fear of dirt, and has been given Wellies to overcome her issues.
The “BBC Article”:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/north_yorkshire/7448006.stm explains that the piglet was afraid of wallowing in the mud, leading her owners to fit her with Wellies, overcoming the problem. Andrew and Debbie Keeble own a sausage company but no longer plan to slaughter Cinders, the mysophobic piglet.
