A group of piglets were fed by a German shepherd in central China.

The bizarre video, filmed in the city of Enshi in Hubei Province on June 21, shows eight piglets running after a German shepherd and then getting milk from her.

According to the dog and pigs' owner Mr Sun, the piglets were during the weaning period, so he moved the mother pig away from them.

However, the piglets started to follow the dog in order to get milk.
