The family is expanding, wrote Schwarzenegger.
Schwarzenegger revealed in an interview with FOX 11’s that “the pig’s name is derived from the German term “schnell,” which means “fast.”
“When we brought [him] home, [he] ran out of the house, ran all over the property, and we couldn’t catch [him],” Arnie remarked. His lover came up with the moniker “Schnelly.”
Thank goodness, the pig no longer runs away, said Schwarzenegger, who continued, “He’s fantastic.”
As a result of the influence of his Batman & Robin co-star George Clooney, who kept a pet pig named Max, Schwarzenegger previously possessed a pet pig named “Bacon.”
Schwarzenegger told the Columbus Dispatch, “I always liked that he was into pigs; he has this little pig that he takes everywhere,” in 2014. “So soon after that, I purchased a pig. However, I must have made the wrong purchase since it quickly weighed 300 pounds, and I could hardly lift the son of a pistol.
(Considering Schwarzenegger’s past as a bodybuilder, that’s saying a lot!)

But Schwarzenegger has several other unusual pets besides pigs, including a donkey named Lulu, a small horse named Whiskey, and three dogs named Dutch, Schnitzel, and Cherry.
Schwarzenegger released recordings of himself spending time in quarantine with his animal buddies during the outbreak, and they quickly gained popularity.
“I manage to blend work and recreation well…” He told FOX 11 that feeding the animals in the morning is a lot of fun because of all the different dynamics.
