Boyfriend must fight jealous pig
You don't want to be Kjetil Gudem. He's the live-in boyfriend of Synne Larsen, who's devoted to him. Unfortunately, she's also devoted to Tirill, her 110 pound pet pig. Tirill is possessive and territorial and mightily resents Kjetil for moving in. For two years, Kjetil tried to befriend Tirill, but to no avail. "She just goes into attack mode," he said. "Often she is standing, waiting when I come out of the toilet." Which is no fun, considering the beast has tusks. Synne is as dedicated to Tirill as she is to Kjetil, and won't give him up. Disciplining the oinker hasn't worked. Neither have dog obedience experts. So now Kjetil walks around the house with his legs wrapped in heavy paper. But there's hope. The couple is expanding the house, in the hopes that the added territory will lessen the tension.
