Boy Spends His Free Time Bathing Homeless Dogs To Help Them Get Adopted
There are many animals that have been abandoned and are looking for homes; fortunately, we can do something to remedy this. Offering food, a little water, or simply a pat to a stray animal may make a tremendous impact.
Brazilian youngster Thiago, 11, has taken this task extremely seriously and has developed a project titled “Sou de rua mas to limpinho,” which roughly translates to “I am a tramp, but I am clean.” Thiago searches the town’s streets for stray dogs, bathes them, and gets them ready to be placed for adoption.

To The Dodo, Thiago said:
“At the conclusion of last year, I made the decision that I needed to help animals. I suggested to my father that stray dogs get baths to keep them fresh-smelling and to change how others see them on the street.
The project first encountered several difficulties, but Thiago and his father were able to resolve them right away.
Thiago explains:
“It’s challenging to capture dogs on the street since they’re frequently abused and always fearful. Therefore, we delayed cleaning them for a while until my father spoke with the NGO Noah’s Ark, at which point we began bathing his freshly rescued dogs.

Each dog has a wash, followed by a wonderful picture shoot with Thiago to increase their chances of being adopted. The photographs are edited by Thiago’s father, who also posts them to social media.
To date, Thiago has provided 48 baths to stray dogs and has all the help from his neighborhood, including gifts of pet shampoo and other bathing supplies.
Highlights of the boy
The majority of the furry ones have been adopted, thus the effort has clearly been successful. This greatly inspires me to carry on.

With his actions and example, Thiago wishes to influence people’s perceptions about strays and encourage them to welcome them into their homes and offer them a second opportunity.
Thiago continued:
“I want people to adopt without being terrified. The greatest in the entire globe, it. However, they do so with the knowledge that the dog is not a possession or a toy. He is a creature with a long lifespan who simply desires to show us love.
