This Abandoned Dog Cried Like A Human Being After Rescuers Showed Her Some Kindness

It can be heartbreaking to find an animal in distress. A lot of rescuers also have to face a number of issues, but they all know that their hard work will pay off in the end. Rescue groups such as Hope For Paws are created to save strays and help with their rehabilitation. When they got a call about a shepherd mix, they went over ASAP. Get ready because this is going to be an emotional rollercoaster!

It Was Cowering Beneath a Car

Hope for Paws got that call one rainy morning. It was about a stray that seemed to be a German Shepherd mix. It was by itself and hiding under a car, avoiding humans as much as it could.

Try To Lure The Dog Out

Eldad Hagar and Loreta Frankonyte were the two members who went to the scene after grabbing a cheeseburger.

Eldad is the founder of the organization Hope For Paws, which goes on missions and rescues animals in need around the area.

Avoiding Contact With Humans

This poor dog had been using a huge van to stay away from humans.

She was clearly terrified and unwilling to come out of there. Loreta stepped closer to show the dog that she had some food!

Proceed With Caution

They wanted to help this scared dog but needed to make sure the dog wouldn’t become violent.

Loreta didn’t want to scare this poor pup, so she approached very slowly and cautiously, to try and make sure the dog won’t run away from her.

No, Thank You

It was scared, there was no doubt about it. It seemed homeless and terrified of humans.

As Loreta came closer to this huge but very scared dog, it started to cry as a person would.

Never Heard Something Like It

In the organization’s video on YouTube, they say, “at first we thought she was hurt but she cried because she was so scared.

” The name of the video is ‘Homeless German Shepherd cries like a human! I have never heard anything like this!!!’ That is proof enough of the unique cry!

Slowly But Surely

While the dog didn’t want to eat the cheeseburger at first, a little while later, she started to cry a little less.

Eventually, she accepted some cheeseburger and began to calm down slightly, despite still crying a little bit. All the same, Loreta was still worried.

Mystery Dog

No one had any idea what the background of this dog was… Would it attack her out of fear?

She needed to be very careful and put her safety ahead of trying to save the pup, even though she wanted to help this animal more than anything.

Taking Baby Steps

After all, there was a chance that it would act out of fear.

She had to be patient and brave in order to approach a scared animal like this one, especially because this dog was quite large in size as well.

Capturing

They had to think of a way to get it to come to them while also keeping their best interest in mind: safety.

Many organizations that deal with animals use a tool to make capturing the animal at hand easier. This tool has a long rope and a hole at the end meant to go around the dog’s head.

Attack Mode

There are often times when dogs attack humans when they get too close, most of the time it just because they are terrified and this is the only way they know how to react in order to protect themselves from what they see to be a threat to them.

Bribery

However, Loretta had a cheeseburger with her. The food serves as a type of bait to lure the dog in.

Just as a fisherman uses bait to attract fish. Was Loretta’s master plan going to work? Let’s find out.

Not Interested In Her Cheeseburger

Usually, an animal’s desire and need for food trumps their fear.

It was strange that the scared dog only backed down and headed under the car even with the presence of the cheeseburger.

Scared & Wary

This dog must have been so scared and wary of humans that she put her hunger aside.

If we were her, we would have grabbed the offering in no time at all. Loretta was also pretty shocked at the dog’s refusal.

Much Longer Than They Expected

The rescue mission would have been much easier had the dog been a little more trusting.

However, Eldad and Loreta wanted to win her over. It was out of the question to take her out of there by force.

Trying To Help

Loreta tried to place a lasso around her neck but let her go after seeing her reaction.

It was very apparent that this dog was absolutely terrified of everything that was happening at the moment.
