My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This little girl, started out as the most flighty out of her whole family and refused to let anyone she didn’t know get close to her and would show off just how athletic she can be by running away as quickly as possible, however, she’s gained confidence and is willing to meet anyone who gives her the chance to make the first move (and she can be easily persuaded to make that move with the proper snack offerings)!

She’s still the most independent of her siblings - she knows what she wants and she’s not afraid to bully her brothers around so she can get it! She’s headstrong and as cute as a button, it’s hard not to love her!

Because she can still be a bit flighty around loud and quick people, she would do best in a home with older or calmer kids, but she (and the whole litter!) have been litter box trained, so she would easily transition to a home as an indoor or an outdoor pig!

Charlie isn’t super bonded to any of her siblings specifically, but we would love to see her go into a home with one of them!

If you are interested in adopting Charlie or learning more about her family, you can check out their page on our website, waywardranch.org or let us know if you have any questions! Charlie is up to date on her vaccines, spayed, and microchipped.

More about this rescue

Our Mission: To provide a quality life to the animals that need it most.

Wayward Ranch Animal Sanctuary, Inc. is a 501c3, tax exempt non-profit organization and all donations to our sanctuary are tax deductible.

The Dream:

Wayward Ranch was founded by three friends who, after working for other rescues for a long time, realized there was something missing from the average rescue model. No animal is perfect, and in the typical shelter system any behavioral concerns an animal had coming in are just exacerbated the longer they are kenneled or caged waiting for a home.

Many local shelters have taken to shipping puppies up from the south because they are more “adoptable” than the shelter animals we have here. However, this just floods are market and takes homes and resources from our local animals who are suffering as a result.

We are committed to a different type of rescue experience. We are a unique combination of adoption and sanctuary facility, taking the pressure of euthanasia away from animals who may not be generically adoptable. We also help our animals thrive, rather than deteriorate, as they wait for forever homes using a combination of enrichment and training techniques.
