AL.com readers love Pig, the oddly shaped dog that was a star at Do Dah Day. Now, Pig is an AL.com star as well, and readers are crazy about Pig and his human mom, Kim Dillenbeck. a Helena contractor. Pig's story is drawing lots of attention. And plenty of positive comments from readers as well.

Said Snowbird: "Wonderful article. You captured both Kim and Pig perfectly! I do hope she finds a way to help Pig become a therapy dog. Doesn't she just put smiles on people's faces wherever she goes?"

Marilyn had this to offer: "Kim, you are truly an angel on earth. How wonderful that you were meant to meet another one in the guise of Pig!"

scotirischer wrote this: "Love comes in all shapes and sizes. Kim, if God treats us in the way we treat His creations then you are truly blessed."

And Donny Dunce Slap said this: "Pig, of course, is oblivious to her condition, and it doesn't appear to affect her happiness. Oh, if only we humans could be less conscious of our defects."

Kim Dillenbeck rescued Pig and has experience with special-needs dogs. Pig isn't the first for her. But even Pig's veterinarians are surprised at how well Pig is doing.
