(FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - It is definitely an odd couple, but a cute one. A dog and a piglet are real life best friends.

Hunter and Mu Shu met when the piglet fell out of a livestock truck in Kansas, and Hunter's owner found him in the road.

The family runs a vet hospital and decided to take the pig in and care for it. As Mu Shu started her recovery, Hunter started to look after her. Hunter would lead the partially blind pig around, play with her and keep her clean.

The family decided to adopt Mu Shu into the family because the odd couple is now completely inseparable.

1. Even a blind pig

Occasionally finds a truffle. This one sure did.

2. From the video, she was pretty bad off when they found her

If they didn't run a Veterinarian office, she probably wouldn't have survived. I am guessing she certainly wouldn't have survived if she hadn't fallen off of that truck.
