Tuffle Sniffing

I'm still not sure how I feel about this. Seems to have been and may still be a trend to train your dog to sniff out truffles here in Oregon. I find it both silly and interesting at the same time. Using your dog to sniff out truffles seems useful and a potentially fun activity, but what about the pigs? Are their feelings going to be hurt now that they are getting outted for dogs in one of their traditional roles (besides bacon, mmm bacon)?

Or perhaps they will start taking on some dog roles as well? Or perhaps it just doesn't matter? It's not like there are stray pigs roaming the streets nor a scarcity of pigs.
