Who says you have to look “good” to do good?

When he was only 13 days old, Brodie was attacked by his own mother. The end result was permanent disfiguration to the puppy’s face and partial blindness. Despite the physical limitations, Brodie has a much greater story to tell the world.

The border collie and German shepherd mix is now with his loving owner, Amanda, and her boyfriend, Brad. Everywhere they take Brodie, the disfigured dog has been generating inspiration and causing smiles.

Brodie has his own Instagram account with 159k followers. His inspiring impact on others knows no bounds!

Disfigured Dog Inspires Others

Amanda and Brad have plans for training Brodie to become a therapy dog.

“We hope to train him to be a therapy dog one day so he can help other people with disabilities.”

Before they claimed him for their family, he had another owner. But this person returned Brodie, feeling as though he was “too hyper.” So after adopting Brodie, they brought the disfigured dog back to the kennels where they got him.

But before Brodie knew it, Amanda and Brad saw him online and knew he would make the perfect doggo for their family.

He continues to grow bigger and older. And though his disability will never change, he can use his different-ness to encourage others, warming hearts, making smiles, and giving people a reason to be grateful.
