Heartbreaking – Timid Rescue Dog Tries To Work Up The Courage To Enter First Real Home
Watching dog’s uncertain reaction to her new home broke owner’s heart (Video)
The dalmatian/pit bull mix had spent her young life giving birth to puppies in a hoarding situation. She had no idea what comfort or safety could mean for her. “She was very timid when we first met her,” said Ashley Moses, Valentine’s mom. “She wasn’t opening up to us, and we couldn’t get a feel for her personality during our meet-and-greet with her. You could tell her spirit was crushed, and she looked so sad.”

The dalmatian/pit bull mix had spent her young life giving birth to puppies in a hoarding situation. She had no idea what comfort or safety could mean for her. “She was very timid when we first met her,” said Ashley Moses, Valentine’s mom. “She wasn’t opening up to us, and we couldn’t get a feel for her personality during our meet-and-greet with her. You could tell her spirit was crushed, and she looked so sad.”
Her spirit was crushed, and she looked so sad
“It took some convincing to get her to come inside with us,” Moses said. “She was so scared, confused and did not want to move from the foyer of our home. She was terrified, but we lured her in with tons of treats,” she added. “She remained very closed off, sad and did not want to interact with us very much the entire night.” Over the next few months, Valentine’s parents helped her overcome fears from her past life — such as walking down stairs and going out in the rain. And now, Moses and her fiancé couldn’t be happier that they took a chance on Valentine and trusted their intuition. Watch the video, she did not want to move from the foyer of their home but now she looks like a totally different dog.
The next morning, Moses expected the rescue pup to be withdrawn but, instead, was greeted with grateful licks. It was as if, overnight, Valentine’s personality had completely changed.

“She is the happiest girl who loves to play with her toys, loves all food, and most of all, her family is her favorite thing,” Moses said. “She is the most expressive, funny dog ever. We’re so proud of all the progress she’s made … and we can’t wait to love her forever.”
