My family and I rescued a German Shepherd from a breeder. Because she wasnt old enough to have puppies yet they kept her in a place where she never saw any humans. She was sooo anxious when she came, wouldnt let anyone touch her or even see her. But after like two months and lots of treats and lovings, everything worked out! She is now the SWEETEST most loving and cuddly dog ever.

I assume the dogs have been severely neglected. They havenât been socialized, probably kept in horrible conditions in cages and have had next to no human interaction besides for food and water. Their fear will dwindle more with time. They donât currently know if youâre good or bad they just know youâre different. Thank you for showing them love!⤠They definitely deserve nothing less. I hope you find love as well because with a soul as pure as yours theyâd be a very lucky personâ¤ď¸.

Theyâve got triggers, so hands coming towards them. And feeling chased when you approach them, so patting from underneath and also getting them to come to you. Having your back turned to them with your hand stretched out behind with chicken. If they are hungry enough (you should exclusively hand feed them) they will learn to come to you.

You should cover three sides of the enclosure with newspapers or blankets so they feel more secure.
And add a bed or two and some blankets outside of the carrier for them to burrow in.
Youâre doing so much great work for them, but theyâre going to be nervous in that wide open exposed space with nothing else but that carrier, which is becoming a crutch.
I have a chihuahua and they can be nervous even when theyâre well adjusted and happy.

My dog is a rescue, she had the exact same reaction to us as the mother, it took her a good year to get used to coming out the kennel on her own, even then she would hide under sofas or tables from the slightest noise. She was terrified and I mean terrified of brooms,mops, anything that looked like a long pole. So I came to terms that she mustâve been abused in her previous home and just loved her as much as possible. I never yelled at her even if she did something wrong. Used a gentle voice. And now 6 years later, she is my brave little baby that even barks at the front door. I love her to death! đ

Momma probably had only 1 person who abused her, plus she probably had to fight the other ones for food. She was a breeding dog and nothing else. I'm so glad they're with you and will have a much better life. Monty and Hunter are so sweet. It was nice of Daniel to buy all the gifts for Hunter. The names suit them, I was thinking of Butter for the one you named Toast. Thanks for fostering these adorable furbabies. Much love â¤ď¸ from Canada

I think that the fear comes from not having much human interaction. When they see you, they get startled because youâre much bigger then they are. Smaller dogs typically will be more fearful and cautious than bigger dogs (because of their size.) Their size with them being not understanding that you arenât a threat, makes them very nervous. It takes a lot of time to desensitize them to human interaction and to gain their trust. My small dog was the same way when we adopted her but she got used to us. When meeting new people, she is still very cautious and picks who she trusts carefully.

Hi Joey! I can tell you are very caring towards these dogs and I really love that youâre stepping in to help them. However Aunty and the Mum are very very timid and when you grab them and pet them, itâs making the fear worse. Itâs called âflooding.â (You can search up about it!) The dogs are frozen in fear, not enjoying the pats. When dealing with dogs like this, itâs best to keep your distance and allow them to come to you in their own time. Itâs very terrifying for them when you grab them. Theyâve probably had little to no human interaction, and if they did, it was most likely abuse. When they are being pat, they are far too scared to care whether it feels good or not and doing this over and over again wonât do anything unfortunately. I recommend a dog trainer with these guys or sitting down, not talking, avoiding eye contact and just staying with them. Occasionally throwing treats will help them come closer. Also avoid as much handling as possible until they show signs theyâre okay with it. Let them come to you in their own time! This is not intended to be hate in any way! Just a little advice for someone who has worked with animals.
