I know this so well with Lápiz. Two years in and he still needs to do this on occasion. But those occasions slowly get less and less, and shorter 🙏
This was Rory yesterday..
I couldn’t find him and thought no he’s escaped but he had curled up in a corner trying to hide. Dogs aren’t born like this relentless abuse is the reason why.
He doesn’t understand he is safe now all he knows that people are cruel. His coping mechanism is to make himself invisible to avoid been hurt.
I want to wrap my arms around him and say it’s ok Rory but that is last thing to do to him.
For now I need to respect his personal space .. He just needs time …
