Every dog has its day — in court.

A pooch in Brazil successfully sued its owner after the brute was caught on camera beating him with a stick.

After the disturbing footage came to light in June, an animal rights group called Fauna Group for the Protection of Animals rescued the dog from his owner, who was arrested for the abuse, according to CEN.

Lawyers for the group then reportedly took the unusual step of filing a lawsuit against the suspect on behalf of the dog, who was named Tokinho.

A court accepted the case, and the dog’s abuser agreed to pay a $410 fine in a plea bargain to avoid a criminal trial on charges that could have sent him behind bars for a year.

However, Tokinho’s lawyers believed that the owner got off too easy and plan to appeal the verdict, arguing that plea deals should only be honored in non-violent cases, according to the report.

Tokinho had since been adopted by two teachers that renamed him Floquinho, which means snowflake.

“On my birthday we had just adopted him and a friend of mine gave me pastries in the shape of Floquinho and Minnie [her other dog] as a gift,” said his new master Marcia.

The woman noted that Floquinho is still scared from his abuse and is easily spooked by sudden movements.
