An adopted pug named Alan from Austin, Texas strides confidently around his home despite having no eyes.<br /><br />In footage captured on April 26, Alan struts his stuff while being enticed by his owners.<br /><br />Alan lost his eyes in an attack from another dog before he was adopted into a new family.<br /><br /> His Mark Shockley and Beth Legacki said online: "He lost his eyes in a dog attack prior to us adopting him. <br /><br />"Despite not being able to see, he moves with courage and confidence. A true inspiration."<br /><br />They later told Newsflare: "He is about nine, and we got him when he was six, shortly after his eyes were removed. <br /><br />"He was a rescue that Pug Rescue Austin cared for and fixed up. <br /><br />"When we first got him it took him a few days to adjust, but he quickly learned the layout and his surroundings. <br /><br />"He rarely hesitates when getting around, and literally will take leaps of faith after he's done laying on the couch, where he enjoys some of his time. <br /><br />"We have other dogs and he works well with the pack, when playing, he will chase the other dogs. <br /><br />"My thought is often 'how are you running? How are you able to fell so unrestrained?'"<br /><br />"He is a brave dog and lives a normal life, he is not held back by his lack of eyes and inspires me to think about how the obstacles I might face on a day to day basis are only perceptions, and I try to be more like him."
