All but the Kuri were mostly used as livestock, and all became extinct due to a combination of Western influence frowning on eating dogs, interbreeding with dogs from colonisers and pioneers, or (in the case of the Marquesan Dog) unknown reasons.

* ''VideoGame/RuneScape'' has a companion pet pig as a reward from a relatively novice-level quest wherein it was raised, which can either be deployed from a player's inventory as a follower, or placed in the menagerie of a player-owned house in game to wander said (virtual) house. This pet pig can be customized to be carrying a backpack, armour, or a miniature prayer altar to showcase the capabilities of the summonable spirit pigs which were also released with the same quest. Strangely, though, pigs are not a raiseable animal in the game's player-owned farm, unlike chickens, rabbits, sheep, cows and yaks.

In RealLife, pigs are uncommon household pets for myriad reasons. While piglets are [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter cute little critters]], adult pigs range in size from "medium dog" to "half a ton of raw porcine power" (so-called "teacup pigs" are actually piglets, not miniture adult pigs). If bored, they're fully capable of tearing apart furniture. Beyond that, proper veterinary care and a balanced, nutritious diet are more difficult to obtain for pigs than would be the case for a typical housepet such as a cat or a dog.
