In his youth, he was a hajduk, and later a trader in farm animals. He had a brother Stevan Dobrnjac who with Marko Todorović launched a short-lived revolt against Miloš Obrenović in 1821.

Role in the Uprising In 1804, the year of the First Serbian Uprising, he was a buljubaša, the commander of a četa (company), under Milenko Stojković. In 1805 he took part in the Battle of Ivankovac against Hafiz Pasha. On his initiative Serbs came to the idea to fortify themself in the battle which proved crucial for Serbian victory. Afterwards, the Governing Council-Soviet (Правитељствујушчи совјет) awarded him the rank of bimbaša (a commander of 1000 men) and Vojvoda.
