My wonky-eyed dog > your perfect puppy

Everyone passed by Mochi at the shelter. One droopy ear, crossed eyes, underbite that makes him look perpetually confused. The volunteers apologetically called him 'special needs' while showing me the golden retriever puppies. But here's the thing nobody tells you about 'ugly' pets: they're grateful in a way that hits different. Mochi follows me everywhere, sleeps pressed against my leg, and somehow always knows when I need comfort. His goofy face makes strangers smile on walks. Meanwhile, my neighbor's Instagram-perfect doodle ate her couch last week. Mochi might look like he was assembled from spare parts, but he's got more personality than most humans I know. Sometimes the best things come in wonky packages. Plus, nobody's trying to steal my clearly 'defective' dog from the yard. Best decision ever. #Pets #Cats #adoptdontshop
