Thiago, an 11-year-old boy from Brazil, might be young, but he’s the mastermind behind an inspiring project to help local shelter dogs get adopted.

The project is called “Sou de rua mas to limpinho,” which translates to “I’m homeless but I’m clean.” Every Saturday, the boy dedicates his time to visiting stray dogs, giving them a nice bath, and sharing a photo of the newly-cleaned dog on social media to help them get adopted.

“At the end of last year, I decided that I needed to somehow do something for the animals,” Thiago told The Dodo.

“While talking to my father, I told him about my idea of ​​bathing street dogs so they stay clean and fragrant and people look at them differently on the street.”

Thiago’s dad, Eduardo, is also a big part of the project, as the stray dog’s official photographer.

“He dedicates Saturdays to bathing the dogs that were rescued and are available for adoption, I take the photos because a photo of quality increases the chances of adoption of dogs,” Eduardo told Bored Panda.

He says they have given baths to 47 stray animals so far.
