Numerous times, we’ve shared stories featuring dogs that are profoundly frightened of any interaction with humans, often choosing to hide from us altogether.
The pressing question remains: how long will this continue? Until we find an answer, our best course of action is to ensure that every dog feels safe and welcomed in our presence.
Even reaching out to your local shelter via a phone call could potentially lead to the rescue of a vulnerable animal.
This account revolves around a sweet mother dog, deeply fearful of humans, as she believed they might harm her and her puppy.
A Very Protective Mother
Upon receiving a message about a terrified mother dog residing in a small forest by a river, a team of animal rescuers felt a sense of urgency and knew they had to help.
They located her fairly quickly, only to find that she was so overwhelmed by fear of humans that she crawled into a tiny hole to hide.
The rescuers approached with caution, hoping their slow movements would help her feel more at ease.
Unfortunately, the closer they got, the further she retreated into the ground. It became apparent that she was there to protect her puppy as well.
Instead of forcibly extracting her, they devised a food trap, hoping that her hunger would coax her out and enable her to feel calmer.
Much to their relief, she was indeed hungry and came out to eat, providing the rescuers with the opportunity to assist her.
The little puppy followed suit, and they were both saved, thanks to the dedication of the incredible rescuers.
A New Adventure For The Dog Family
It was now crucial to transport them to a secure environment. One rescuer brought them to his home, where he provided them with care and support.
He observed that both the mother and her puppy had hearty appetites and relished consuming everything they could find.
In the safety of his home, the mother dog began to relax significantly, even allowing for some affectionate moments with her caretaker.
A few days later, the mother and her puppy appeared far more content than they did on the day of their rescue.
Her caretaker took the initiative to introduce her to the other dogs at home, and they all appeared to bond well with each other.
Wondering about their names, he decided to give them fitting titles: the mother he named Dora, and the puppy he named Finn.
Both have shown remarkable growth since the day they were rescued by loving hands.
While it’s uncertain if they have been formally adopted by their caretaker, one fact remains clear: they are now safe and living joyful lives.
