A dog that spent his life in a puppymill has no consept of being outside his cage. It's quite normal to be petrified let alone skittish. This dog should never have gone to a home. He should have been surrendered to a rescue with experience in dealing with puppymill rescues. There he would have been rehabilitated the best he could be and then hopefully ready for his forever home. It's tragic that this little guy ended up as he has. Elaine |
