At home pond has anyone set up one before in their back yard?

Looking to add a pond to my back yard, I was wondering if anyone has ever had any experience in this. I have been told to get some pigs and after you dig the hole they can help impact the sides and ground.

We have some friends who hired someone to excavate to build a pond. It was quite expensive but worth it in the long run as they get a bunch of waterfowl now. I have never heard of using pigs but I can see how some would.
