Pigs might eat slop and roll around in the mud, but your dog would probably do the exact same thing given the opportunity. Aside from being the world's source of delicious meats like pork chops and bacon, pigs are all very smart and friendly creatures.

This big pig -- or his owner, at least -- has apparently crossed paths with the law. According to the Instagram post, Deputies Ponce and Berg knew exactly where the big fella needed to go "due to previous calls," so they used the Doritos to get him home safely.

Just a happy story of an escaped giant pig being reunited with his family to warm your heart on a Sunday.
