Indiana woman fighting to keep 160-pound pig as emotional support animal

October 27, 2018

An Indiana mom is fighting her city to keep her 160 pound pot-bellied pig. Farm animals are not allowed within New Castle city limits, according to city code, but Joy Burke said the 10-month-old pig named Dazie is her emotional support animal.

Burke has had her pig for about a year and said it’s never been a problem until someone complained to animal control. She claims Dazie helps her with anxiety and panic attacks.
