The folks at Charlotte’s Freedom Farm want you to come out and celebrate Wally’s first birthday on Nov. 12.
Wally is one of the disabled animals on the Dresden area farm. He arrived from Montreal at just 10 weeks of age. His two front legs had not developed properly in the womb, creating a bend that disables him from properly supporting himself on them.
Since moving to the farm he has acquired two prosthetic legs that help him to get around and play with all of his friends.
Along with his new front legs, Wally also acquired a new best friend, Winnie-The-Roo. Together they have become hits on the Internet with almost 100,000 followers on Instagram combined.
Charlotte’s Freedom Farm is celebrating Wally turning one on Nov. 12 by hosting a Super Mario themed party. There will be a life-sized Mario Kart course, cake, and a barbeque with plant-based options available for purchase.
This is a chance for families to support the sanctuary by coming out to meet Wally and the rest of Winnie’s Warriors (the farm’s crew of dog friends) and many of the other animals who live on the farm. Dressing up as your favourite Mario character is encouraged.
Tickets are $10 each and are available on the farm’s Eventbrite page at https://www.eventbrite.ca/o/charlottes-freedom-farm-19930384894.
Charlotte’s Freedom Farm is home to nearly 200 rescued animals, from farm animals to dogs and cats.
