Meet LiLou, San Francisco International Airport's first therapy pig!

The spotted Juliana pig recently joined the Wag Brigade, a team of dogs trained in the Animal Assisted Therapy Program from San Francisco Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. She even has her own Instagram account.

While SFO started the Wag Brigade program in 2013, LiLou is the first pig to join the team that roams the terminals at SFO wearing "Pet me!" vests hoping to make air travel a little less stressful for passengers.

Here she is in action at the airport:

Want to meet Lilou in person? While the cheery pig has no set schedule yet, airport spokesman Doug Yakel told Conde Nast Traveler, that SFO plans on having her trot through the airport at least once a month.

While you'll have to be very lucky to meet LiLou, a few canine members of the Wag Brigade are at the airport every day of the week-which officially makes SFO the best airport ever (yoga rooms included).
