Help with Puppy Mill Rescue

[gayle wilder]

Hello, my name is Gayle, I rescued a 2 year old Frenchie (girl) from a puppy mill. She has had 2 sets of babies. She is beautiful. The problem is she will not let us near her. She hides under the diningroom table all day. She goes out to potty with my other dog so potty training is no issue. If we get near her she runs. We have had her for 3 months. We cannot hold her, walk her, take her for rides, give her a bath, etc.... HELP

She most likely never had human interaction…. Try to get on her level, sit on floor, not looking at her and entice her with treats. It’s a LONG process but can help. Also try to find a trainer or ask the rescue for some other insight to helping her open up. 3 months is the usual time a rescue settles in and opens up so if she hasn’t then you’ll need a professional to help figure out how to help her..

Best of luck
