When your entire life has been spent on the streets, trusting someone becomes a real challenge.

This story is about dogs who have had unfortunate experiences with humans throughout their lives. In the presented video, we witness a moment when one of these dogs feels a gentle human touch for the first time. Her emotions in this moment are particularly intriguing. From the start, her eyes express distrust and caution. She can’t immediately understand what’s happening, why she’s being touched, and what the person’s intentions are.

Most likely, the dog’s mind is filled with thoughts of a possible trap or harm. This is understandable — living on the streets, she’s not familiar with the kindness that people or even other animals can offer. However, something changes in that moment.
