But you may not know about [LiLou the SFO Therapy Pig,](https://www.lilouthepig.com/my-story) a trailblazing member of the [Wag Brigade](http://www.flysfo.com/services-amenities/wag-brigade) at the San Francisco International Airport (SFO). In the wake of 911, several airports added certified trained animals to help provide emotional support for stressed-out travelers. However, SFO is the only U.S. airport with a therapy pig, and LiLou holds the unique honor of being the only Ms. Piggy on a team made up of support canines.  As you can see from her picture with painted toes and bows, she's bound to draw attention and inspire a smile. "LiLou is the first pig to be certified in the Animal Assisted Therapy Program of [the San Francisco Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals](https://www.sfspca.org/). She has a variety of costumes, including a Wag Brigade “Pet Me!” vest. And, according to the stats on LiLou’s Wag Brigade trading card, she also performs a variety of tricks, including greeting people with her snout or a wave, twirling and standing up on her back hooves, and playing a toy piano -- with a proper, post-performance bow. *([USA Today)](https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/flights/todayinthesky/2016/12/05/san-francisco-airport-introduces-first-therapy-pig/94983676/)."* *![Noe Valley Animal Fair Banner by BarkerBlue Create](https://blog.barkerblue.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Noe%20Valley%20Animal%20Fair%20Banner%20by%20BarkerBlue%20Create.jpg?width=542&name=Noe%20Valley%20Animal%20Fair%20Banner%20by%20BarkerBlue%20Create.jpg)* In addition to her once a month visits to the San Francisco airport, LiLou also makes a variety of other scheduled appearances in and around the San Francisco Bay area. In fact, she recently appeared on stage at the [Noe Valley Animal Fair,](https://www.facebook.com/events/noe-valley-town-square/noe-valley-animal-fair/897454327109130/) an educational pet adoption event providing "Fun for Animals in Rescue!".  And though LiLou is a seasoned pro on-stage, she shined even brighter with the help of a [colorful stage banner](https://barkerbluecreate.com/what-we-do/products/banners/) designed and created by BarkerBlue for the event.
