It will take some time to adjust. He probably needs some space, maybe some quiet and privacy for eating and pottying? He may not be used to an audience. Crouching down to his level and letting him come to you, things like that might help his trust problems. I know I'm not a big help, just throwing some things out there. This is a whole new world for him I feel sad for him just looking at those pictures, he looks so unhappy, he has no idea that his future holds lots of kisses and love. He is a handsome guy and I hope things get better very soon.

We have a golden retriever we adopted at the pound. He took about 2 weeks to eat a full meal and a good two days before he went pee. They take a long time to trust enough to let you see who they really are. I don't think we saw his real personality until about 2 months after he came home.
