As Day 1 of our new foster dog Roxy’s arrival, comes to a close, she is still as terrified as when we met this morning.
She has eaten a little beef mince and drank some water, only after we all went to bed. I heard her out in the kitchen.
I got up just now to carry her outside for a pee as she won’t come on her own. As soon as I put her down on the ground, she ran and hid behind our shed, in the rain on the wet concrete, shaking.
She prefers that to the terror of being near me. I feel so sad for her, but cheer myself up, as I tuck her back inside and wrap her in a blanket for the night, with all the wonderful she has yet to come.
