Pig-Pen is a fictional character in the comic strip Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz, syndicated in daily and Sunday newspapers in numerous countries all over the world. While amiable, he is a young boy who is, except on rare occasions, extremely dirty and attracts a permanent cloud of dust.
==History== "Pig-Pen" is a nickname. In a 2000 Gallup Poll, Pig-Pen was found to be the fifth most popular Peanuts character. In strips up through 1980, Schulz spelled the character's name "Pig-Pen", with a hyphen; since 1981, the name has been spelled "Pigpen". He is also mocked by other characters because of his dirtiness.
