Farm animals band together to teach three-legged deer how to run. Rudie went through so much, but he was still the sweetest deer around.
If you live out in the country, you probably see deer frequently. They’re always running around, chewing on grass and scampering through the forest. Most of the time, it’s best to observe deer from a distance like any wild animal.
Although he was otherwise normal and healthy, he was missing one of his front legs. It took Rudie a little while to learn how to walk properly with such a different sense of balance, but he persevered.
To further showcase all of their adventures, the family even made a special Instagram account, @rudiethereindeer, to allow people all over the world to see Rudie’s journey and recovery! Anyone who sees the account is sure to fall in love.
Although this story is more topical during the holiday season, Rudie’s story is one that applies all year round.
We have to face many hardships in life, some of which may seem insurmountable. The loss of a leg for a deer is generally a fatal injury. Fortunately, with a little bit of help and a lot of his own courage, Rudie was taken in by good Samaritans to make a swift recovery. After that, he was taken in yet again by a loving family.
Through it all, it’s actually a direct result of Rudie’s hardships that he inspires so many people and has the internet fame that he has today!
Rudie is now six years old, and he’s still doing great.
The little deer has the best time with his family, and they do lots of fun things together. Rudie also loves hanging out with all the other animals on the farm, which includes cows, horses, and dogs. He’s as sweet as can be.
“What he’s been through, you’d think he would be really shy, and he’s the total opposite!” Rudie’s mom, Miranda told The Dodo.
Rudie is a sweet deer who loves his family so much. We’re so glad Rudie was saved and has gone on to live such a wonderful life.
