Trapper, our gunshot guy is eating, drinking, and sleeping hard. He doesn't want to leave his kennel and is very scared. He wags his tail and is happy to see his foster parents when they bring him treats and sit with him. He has been with us since 10 yesterday morning and by 4 this afternoon had still not gone potty. He was given fluids at the vet yesterday so we knew he had to go. We can't get him to walk for us.
This afternoon we carried him outside and stood him in the grass. He pooped for us and took about 5 steps and peed for a good 3 minutes. Then he layed down again.
We know he is scared of people. We thought another dog might help him move so Rudy came to visit. Rudy layed by him and tried his best to get him to interact with him. Trapper wagged and finally got up. He walked a few steps with Rudy and then layed down again. We carried him back in and will keep working with him until he understands the routine.
