I sound to me like he didn't get handled or had much socializing or human contact when he was younger. or it is possible that he was mishandled and fears humans due to an unfriendly incident.
Can I ask where you get him from ?
Does he let you cuddle him ?
Does he give puppy kisses ?
Does he show fear all of the time or only when being held?
Does he allow you to approach him and pick him up?
Has you vet ruled out any illness that could be causing pain?
That would cause him not to want to be held or touched.
Sorry for the long list of questions but this just baffles me as to why a puppy would be so fearful. You don't have to answer but I just though it would help to try and figure out why he does this and try to figure out a way to help this little one feel more at home with you and your family.
