The television personality is now being investigated for possible animal cruelty, NBC Los Angeles reported.
Sheriff’s deputies with Los Angeles County Animal Control visited Millan’s Dog Psychology Center in Santa Clarita, La., Thursday evening, but he was away on a business trip, a family member told NBC.
The animal welfare officials had received several inquiries after the episode with Simon, which showed the dog biting a pig’s ear during a training session led by Millan.
A 24-hour notice has been issued, requiring him to contact the investigators, according to NBC. They want to know what has happened to the pig since the episode’s filming.
The contentious incident took place inside a fenced yard, where Millan was conditioning Simon to become accustomed to the pigs’ company. This concluded with Simon bounding towards a pig which appeared to be restrained by one of Millan’s assistants. Simon proceeded to bite the pig and leave the area around its ear bloodied.
“Simon ripped the ear off the pig,” said Simon’s owner, Sandy. “It was a bloodbath.”

good thing these idiots didn’t see our border collies working cattle and hogs when I was a kid. Pretty hard to hurt a hog.
The pig has moved on and is the front runner in the Democrat primaries for POTUS...........
