If you desperately want a pet but just can’t decide between a clever pig, a fluffy sheep or a playful puppy companion, stop fretting and get yourself a Mangalitsa pig that combines all three.

This Hungarian breed of pig grows woolly fur — perfect for cuddling — and can be tamed as a house pet (although it’ll have to be a big house).
They’re very playful and inquisitive and have been known to follow their owners around just like fluffy sheep-pig-dogs.
And then there’s the fact that they’re absolutely adorable.
They’re so fluffy.

And all they want to do is snuffle around and play, like this guy.

Don’t say you’re not tempted to buy a farm and fill it with Mangaltsa piggies.

Just imagine strolling about your local park with this guy on a leash.

Why have a labrador when you can have a sheep pig?

Or, if these guys are just making you feel peckish (you carnivore), you should know Mangalitsa pigs make some of the best pork. But we’d rather cuddle them.
