Katjinga is a Rhodesian Ridgeback dog, and Paulinchen is a two-week-old piglet who lost her mother and was taken in by Katjinga. The dog took care of Paulinchen right away, treating her like one of her own. She fell in love with the cute little piglet at first sight and promised to save her life.



Roland is a real estate developer who discovered the tiny sow absolutely weak and trying to survive after the rest of her family abandoned her one night after her birth. Roland stated:“Wild pigs roam our property, and a sow gave birth to a litter of five in our woodland. I discovered Paulinchen alone and she was quite chilly when I scooped her up.”

Katjinga raised the little child as her own. Roland continued: “I was convinced that some local foxes would have grabbed the pig that night, so I brought it home and handed it to Katjinga. I had just finished with a litter that is now 10 months old, so I believed there was a chance I could take on the responsibility of caring for it.”
