One typical day, Lauren stumbled upon a stray dog wandering aimlessly on the street. As she got closer, she sensed something was amiss.
The little dog was trembling uncontrollably. He appeared utterly frightened of everyone around, and Lauren’s heart went out to him.
She couldn’t fathom how he had become so terrified of people, but it seemed evident that he may have suffered abuse at the hands of strangers, which is truly heartbreaking.
Determined, Lauren resolved to do everything in her power to help him heal from his past and embrace a new beginning.
It’s Going to Take Time

Once Lauren brought the frightened dog, now named Archer, to the rescue organization, the team dedicated themselves to his recovery. Yet, despite their efforts, the poor pup remained extremely anxious.
Archer wouldn’t even meet their eyes, and getting him to eat was a challenge. When they attempted to leash him for a walk, he refused to budge.
Lauren shared with The Dodo: “We don’t know what’s happened to him while he was alone on the street.”
