12 Insane Things You Didn't Know About The Walking Dead

So, you might (emphasis on the might) recall a scene in season four's "Alone" where Daryl and Beth are staying in a funeral home and encounter a little one-eyed dog. Daryl tries to invite him in, but the poor fellow is too scared. The last you hear of the cute canine is squeals of pain as he's chowed down on by walkers. But, there's a fascinating backstory to his one-eyed look.

In real life, this character is played by Dooley, a dog who really does have one eye. He got a part in the show as the producers thought his missing organ made him look like the perfect apocalypse survivor. But, you're probably wondering how he ended up looking that way? Well, let's just say you'll develop a lot more respect for him after finding out.

It turns out the fluffy boy lost his eye after defending his owner in a carjacking. He fought against the would-be criminals, and while he did lose an appendage, he succeeded in protecting his owner. Truly man's best friend and an utter hero.
