Found: pig

A group of good Samaritans spent some time Thursday morning around 10am chasing a small, brown pig that was out on the streets at NE 185th and 10th NE in Shoreline.

They managed to corner it in the yard next to A Place for Kids preschool, then locked it in the preschool playground (no preschoolers were in the playground).

After a few hours, and a lot of comments on social media, no one came forward to claim the pig, so he was picked up by Animal Control.

A reader who helped with the chase was told by Animal Control that Pig would be taken to the shelter in Kent.

  1. Oh if no one claims him I hope the preschool adopts him! A pig could be very happy there and it would be a nice addition to the neighborhood and the learning environment. Plus manure for the dahlia farmer around the corner!
