A paraplegic dog and a piglet that fell from a livestock truck have struck up a heartwarming friendship at an animal sanctuary. Winston the golden retriever and Wilma the pig are "inseparable", according to Charlotte’s Freedom Farm founder Lauren Edwards.
The 37-year-old has spent the past five years providing a safe haven for animals rescued from the farming industry in Ontario, Canada. The five-and-a-half acre site is now home to more than 200 pets, many with health conditions, including pigs, ponies, peacocks and pigeons.
Winston and Wilma met on the farm last September shortly after being adopted separately. “Wilma looked like a puppy in a piglet costume", said Ms Edwards.
