A Traumatized And Abused Dog Can’t Stop Screaming When Someone Touches Him

Improper parenting and neglecting our dogs’ needs can lead to severe anxiety and phobia. That’s exactly what happened to Kanye, a dog that suffered from severe anxiety when he was brought to a shelter. 

His previous owners neglected Kanye in the most obvious way. I can’t even imagine what poor Kanye has been through, as he was extremely stressed out the first time he was approached in his crate. 

Kanye Didn’t Trust People

Even though he didn’t bite nor show any signs of aggression towards Monica, Kanye was extremely loud in his crying. He was trying to avoid her touch at all costs probably because it reminded him of previous owners hitting him.

The little Kanye, who was still a puppy, avoided interaction and socialization with other dogs. All he wanted to do was be alone, far away from people.

This is a quite common pattern in dogs that have been through extreme trauma. They have a hard time adapting to new circumstances and new people, and most of the time, their behavior is lethargic. 

Some even refuse to eat or drink, as they don’t feel safe enough to approach food in front of people.

The Caretaker, Monica, Came To The Rescue

Luckily, the shelter caretaker, Monica, was there to save little Kanye from himself. 

Even though he was extremely terrified when she first approached him, her gentle touch was something new for him.

After a few moments of her petting Kanye, he stopped screaming excessively and let it go. Turns out all Kanye needed was a humane, gentle approach, and a little love. After all – don’t all dogs deserve that?

It took him some time, but Kanye’s progress was gradually improving. Throughout time, he overcame his fear of other people. He’s now a confident, happy boy who loves playing around with his mates, and he truly enjoys his relationship with Monica.
