A viral video that showed a new puppy after being brought to a new home is melting hearts. The owner explains her pup hid in the laundry room after being brought home for the first time.
Captions in the clip read: "This was the first night I met my family. I was so afraid. I didn't want to come out. My mom eventually got me out with food."
In the video, you see the woman entering the laundry room where the puppy was hiding in the corner between the wall and a top-loader washing machine. The poor dog seems so scared and did not respond when the new owner tried to get the pooch out with a fly swatter and encouraging sounds.
According to the American Kennel Club, puppies can be scared and confused when they come to a new home as they have been taken away from their mother, siblings, and other people they might know.
