Meet Odin, The Dog Who Lost Part Of His Snout In An Accident And Still Found Kindness In His Owner Who Adopted Him After He Spent 3 Years In A Shelter
The smile of Odin the dog is so wide and loving that the marks he carries on his face and body fade out of focus. However, they rarely go unnoticed. The story is that when Odin was still a puppy, he had an explosive strapped to one of his paws. When he felt the fire, in an instinctive gesture to put it out, he bit the item, which blew up, knocking out teeth and destroying part of his paw and snout.
Luckily, Odin was rescued in time and made it through alive. Then the puppy spent three years in a shelter with other animals until his sweet smile shared on social media captivated his future owner Claiciene. Now Odin has over 10K followers on Instagram as more and more people fall in love with his touching story and adorable demeanor.

“In Viking mythology, Odin was the supreme chief of the realm of Asgard, where the Norse gods dwell. Odin is considered the god of wisdom, magic, poetry, and war. He is the protector of the dead in battle and of wizards. It would be the perfect name for him to carry, due to his strength and life story.
With the adoption of Odin, I knew that we would have a long battle ahead, of inclusion and even of raising people’s awareness of mistreatment. I know he is guiding me in this battle and doing the same with those who become aware of its existence,” points out the businesswoman Claiciene Costa Kobayashi, who drove from Santa Bárbara d’Oeste to São José dos Campos to adopt Odin. Today the family lives in Paraty, on the coast of Rio de Janeiro.

Odin’s owner wants to spread the message about animals that are constantly neglected in animal shelters

Claiciene alerts readers to the fact that, in shelters, some groups of animals are constantly neglected and spend years, if not their entire lives, without being chosen. “These animals are the elderly, adults, and the disabled.
That’s why my goal today is to make people aware of this type of adoption and, mainly, about responsible adoption. Adoption cannot be guided by the physical characteristics of the animal, but by the positive impact of living with these very special beings. It feels like drying ice most of the time, but we can’t give up hope.”

We hope this story inspires more people to adopt animals that have been hurt but are just as lovable!

The header says he lost part of his snout in an 'accident' but the text below said that an explosive had been strapped to his paw. That sounds like an on purpose maiming!
WTF! WHO THE HELL WOULD DO THAT? HOW WOULD THEY LIKE HAVING AN EXPLOSIVE STRAPPED TO THEIR HAND AND HAVING IT BLOW UP?
I hope someone straps bomb to there manhood and blow it off

Some people should have a slow and painful death. Some people, like Claiciene and those who saved Odin, should live forever.
I’m sorry, I don’t think I read that correctly. Someone STRAPPED AN EXPLOSIVE TO HIS PAW WHAT THE ACTUAL F**K
Goes to show that all creatures thrive when they are loved. TLC goes a long way.

You’d be too late if I got there first. We could take turns!

Couldn't look at the pictures, because of what happens to some animals in real life, often by people, but I would have upvoted this 1000 times more and a gaziljon added to that. Odin is just one of the more lucky ones. 🤟👍👍👍👍
I understand that it can be triggering and disturbing at first to look at the photos, but there is so much love in Odin's eyes and he is truly living his very best life now with a loving and caring owner. He has adorable little bandanas and bow-ties and is traveling to some lovely places with his loving "human". Odin also had the sweetest little smile. He may look a little different, but he I'm sure that he has he biggest of doggy hearts.

The more I look at him the cuter he gets. Odin has a heart of gold
Aw, breathing must have been difficult. It’s so sweet to see that he’s better. He looks genuinely happy <3. It doesn’t matter how it happened because they all describe it differently. At least now he’s loved!
Odin is so cute! He looks beautiful even with his snout like that. Also, to anyone who likes this post: The Dodo has lots of stuff like this and how to prevent it on its YouTube channel.
what mf would do such a thing!?! this person who rescued him is a real hero!
Crying due to the cruelty of some ppl, but smiling, cuz of the happiness that pup is exuding...thankyou for loving him
to the person who strapped an explosive to poor little odins paw I HOPE YOU GET PUT A BRAZEN BULL IN A SLOW FIRE AND GET BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE WITH PAIN INSTILLED IN YOURE MINDS AND THEN GET FED YOUR OWN GUTS AND THEN ROT INSIDE SATANS DISGUSTING SMELLY SULFURUS HOT ARMPITS WHILE HES DOING CARDIO FOREVERMORE MWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA
How do you see a puppy and the next thing that comes to your mind is "wow let's explode it"? Like, HOW. O_o
While I am so happy that Odin is now a much-loved family member, the story is tempered by the unbearable sadistic cruelty he suffered as a puppy. Who tf actually does something so heinous to such a tiny, innocent creature? I sincerely hope for a lifetime of suffering for the monster responsible. You dont deserve to breathe air.
But they saved the dog and he lives a beautiful, happy life now obviously. How could this uplifting story make you sad?
