Golden Retriever Meets Rescue Dog Completely Frozen in Fear
This is the first time our Golden Retriever met this completely terrified rescue dog Joky. Over the past 6 weeks, with the help of our golden retriever Kobe and Doberman Moki, we attempted to help her come out her shell, and eventually find her forever home

00:00She's terrified we can barely even get close to her but somehow we need to
00:06build her confidence before she has a meet-and-greet with someone who
00:09hopefully becomes her forever home but to understand how we even got here we
00:13need to go right back to the very beginning the moment we first met her
00:19this is Jockey she's a bit unsure of us so this is the first time we met Jockey
00:26we actually met her at the shelter she was living in in Macedonia and sadly you
00:31can see just how unsure she is of us even in her safe home when Ella tried to
00:41get near her she still didn't want anything to do with her but after
00:45spending some time with all the dogs at the shelter we came back the next day and
00:50she did this she's already started to come out her shell more so we know
00:57there's some hope for her but how would she be when she arrived at our home so
01:02after spending two days traveling from Macedonia to here in the UK she finally
01:09arrived yeah I thought she'd be a bit scared pick her up JJ do you remember me so
01:15we're having a bit of trouble getting Jockey out of the van because she's scared
01:18bless her Jockey was sadly super scared so our focus right now is to just get her
01:24into the house thank you so much thank you thank you we took her straight into the
01:34garden and oh yeah she also came with three other dogs from the same shelter
01:39oh this one's scared Jockey hello good girl so Jockey is quite clearly a lot more scared than
01:49all the other rescues these seem quite happy Jockey good girl it's okay we have our two
01:58dogs upstairs so the rescues have some time to explore before meeting them so we can
02:04see there's definitely a more scared dog here but she's trying to be brave oh hello
02:10oh I can't wait for them to meet Kobe and Moki yeah you're gonna have a new best friend
02:13oh look at Jockey wow you can tell Jockey is really trying to be confident she's showing some
02:23good early signs I'm really surprised yeah so you're right there Jockey so we did have a fence
02:30set up behind us to try and get Jockey behind it but she doesn't want to go there and we
02:34don't want
02:35to force her so what we're gonna do now is we're gonna go and get our crazy dog with a
02:39Moki and get
02:40her to just meet one on one oh appeasement licks good girl Jockey good girl oh she keeps giving like
03:00appeasement licks to her that's adorable well done yeah she's gonna be your best friend we could not
03:07believe how good Jockey is with Moki and even Moki showing her lots of respect too good girl Moki well
03:15done well to be honest because she's fine with her I'm just gonna go and get our jealous very jealous
03:21called Retriever Kobe because I think this would be a good time to introduce them both yeah good girl
03:35oh the appeasement licks are adorable she's so submissive isn't she oh Kobe likes her doesn't he yeah
03:48similar ages yeah I reckon Kobe might fancier look at him he's gone all shy good girl Jockey
03:58oh that's really good they spotted the other dogs when Kobe and Moki met the other rescues it went
04:06really well and Jockey was doing great too but you'll see later on unfortunately she shut down
04:14so now the dogs have all had a chance to get to know each other it's time to try and
04:18progress Jockey
04:19into the house so what we're gonna do is just open this up again so the dogs can come into
04:25here
04:25because a lot of the time for some reason dogs are scared of this conservatory I think they just don't
04:29know what it is and then we're gonna open this door into the house and they can basically just come
04:32in their own time oh they're coming in oh my god you can see here just how unsure Jockey is
04:41oh my god Jockey's scared Becca's being really good oh Jockey's a bit scared bless her
04:51she just hit her head oh Jockey so it looks like we have got one dog that is a bit
04:57scared to come in
04:58oh Jockey's scared Becca's being really good oh look at Jockey oh the boyfriend came
05:06oh Moki's pushed her in Jockey I'm sorry I've just stepped on Jockey's poor Max and now she's
05:12really scared I feel so sad I'm not gonna follow her that was really sad sorry Jockey I'm sorry
05:19she's being good she's nowhere near as scared already it's really good progress Kobe literally loves this
05:24dog although Jockey seems pretty terrified she did show us a glimpse of her true personality
05:33well Jockey what are you doing she's getting all excited good girl rubbed herself up onto it
05:42oh she got a bit scared bless her so a few hours had passed and I was struggling to get
05:48near her
05:48so you can see Jockey is still a little bit unsure of me
05:52I'm not gonna force it obviously come on Jockey
05:57which is fine obviously they've literally been here for like two three hours and they can't all
06:00be as crazy as them two
06:04but we started to notice Jockey felt more comfortable with Ella
06:08oh she really likes you doesn't she
06:10yeah
06:13wants to trust
06:14yeah
06:16and then we needed to put a collar on and figured it's best that Ella did it
06:20oh you're not sure all right
06:22use a pet her and then try and yeah
06:24good girl
06:25oh well done
06:26oh good yeah
06:29hopefully doesn't need any adjustment
06:30no she's fine
06:32she's very submissive
06:34Kobe and Moki were playing and what happens next proves just how submissive she is
06:40you right Jockey
06:43Moki not into her
06:45oh she didn't even tell her off
06:47poor thing
06:48so it's really important we try and help Jockey grow her confidence because she will eventually go to her forever
06:54home
06:54but we've got a long way to go before that
06:57over the next few weeks we're going to be getting in a professional dog behaviorist
07:01and we're going to be trying our best to transform her
07:04but we're still on our first day
07:06and even small things like getting her into the conservatory to eat is a challenge
07:10put her in the conservatory maybe
07:12come on Moki out
07:15come on
07:19Ella's found a way to transport her
07:21come on
07:22Jockey here
07:23we want to feed Kobe and Moki outside
07:25oh she's coming
07:27good girl
07:28good girl
07:29good girl
07:30come on
07:31come on Moki out
07:33oh Moki's being so annoying
07:35maybe put it on the floor
07:36oh yeah
07:37there that's good
07:38you've got to remember she's used to being fed outside
07:40alright can you go and shut the conservatory
07:41yeah
07:42slowly and gently
07:43oh
07:45we're getting into the evening time
07:47and the dogs are finally starting to feel
07:49how tired they are
07:51from their two days of traveling
07:53oh Jockey's literally
07:55falling asleep
07:58she is the cutest thing
08:02Jockey slept really well on her first night
08:05but how would she be tomorrow morning
08:14come on dogs
08:15come on
08:16hold on
08:17hold on
08:20hold on
08:21hold on
08:22hold on
08:22hold on
08:23you can see she's feeling pretty unsure
08:25and when I try and get near her
08:27this is her reaction
08:28so you can see like even if I'm walking out
08:30I'm just walking towards the door
08:32I'm not actually walking into Jockey bless her
08:34just a little bit skittish
08:35which is fine
08:36you know she's
08:37she's gonna have her ups and downs
08:38hopefully she will come out of her shell more
08:40she's got plenty of time to do it
08:42which is good
08:43a few days had passed
08:45Jockey was pretty much still the same
08:47quite scared
08:48so we brought in our dog behaviorist
08:50Dillnaz
08:50to do some confidence building with her
08:52she lacks a bit of confidence
08:54so we're going to work on developing her confidence
08:57teach her a bit of resilience
08:58and we're going to do that through something called free work
09:01so free work is basically putting a bunch of random items on the ground
09:04and placing treats between them
09:06and letting Jockey interact with everything in her own time
09:10the idea is this helps build her confidence
09:12so let's see how she gets on
09:14she is a little bit unsure
09:16she is a little bit uncertain
09:18it's nice that she's choosing to explore
09:20so she's gone for the sprat first there
09:22and she spat it out
09:25Jockey then seems curious of me
09:27everything was going so great but
09:30just curious
09:31so her body language is not completely relaxed
09:35you can see by that
09:36and there she goes backing away
09:38and also if you look at her tail
09:40it's quite tough
09:41Jockey shut down and hid underneath the table
09:44her progress suddenly stopped
09:48Dillnaz did try and get her out
09:51Jockey
09:55good girly
09:59so I'm purposely looked away again
10:03I know I'm looking out the window
10:04good girl
10:07I'm not going to force her to come to me
10:09okay
10:09you never want to force a dog to come to you for food
10:12which is why I'm throwing it towards her
10:14yeah
10:15she can choose
10:16if she wants to come in or not
10:18it was working
10:19Jockey did start to show some curiosity
10:22I know I'm talking about you
10:25but then sadly went back to her safe space
10:30things weren't looking great
10:32but Dillnaz had one more trick up her sleeve
10:36we all left the room
10:37as she could have been feeling a bit intimidated
10:39by all of us being there
10:41so now we've left
10:42how will she react
10:45she's watching and she kind of looks like
10:47where are they all going
10:48yeah yeah
10:50so she's exploring
10:51is she
10:51yep
10:54so the Cavaletti poles made her startle
10:56let's see if she goes back
10:58so this will give us an idea about her resilience
11:00so Jockey hit one of the poles
11:03is she
11:03yep
11:05it made a loud noise
11:07she got scared
11:07but will she be brave enough to go back to what scared her
11:11and then she's gone back a little bit under the table
11:14and she's circling everything
11:16so what she's doing
11:17is she's trying to work out
11:18if things are gonna hurt her or not
11:21yeah
11:22right
11:22so that's why she's doing the circling
11:24she's eating the treats
11:25brilliant
11:26Jockey went back for more
11:28we couldn't believe it
11:29only her first training session
11:31and she's really showing us
11:33there's hope for her still
11:34we promise not to let you down Jockey
11:39so a few days had passed
11:41and Jockey's continuing her progress
11:43but this time with Kobe
11:45this is the first time like she's
11:47properly played with all the dogs
11:49Kobe keeps trying to mount her
11:53oh and it's giving her the zoomies
11:55it honestly brings a tear to my eye
11:57seeing her like this
11:58Jockey was previously at a shelter
12:00where they pocketed all the donations
12:02and she had to fight for everything
12:04sadly including food and water
12:07she's around five years old now
12:08has barely any teeth because of this
12:10and has lived a really tough life
12:13she was rescued from that horrible place
12:15by Happy Shelter
12:16and of course now is with us
12:23if you could hit that subscribe button
12:25so we can continue rescuing dogs
12:27just like Jockey
12:28that would be amazing
12:30Kobe
12:32so night time came
12:34and Jockey is still scared of me
12:36but she shows that resilience again
12:50we're so proud of Jockey
12:52she's making great progress
12:53towards her meet and greet
12:55and finding her forever home
12:56we're about 10 days in
12:58since rescuing her
12:59and she came into the kitchen
13:01for the first time ever
13:03she's coming for it
13:04she won't fear
13:05I think so
13:06good girl Jockey
13:08she's making amazing progress
13:11but everything is about to change for her
13:13because we're rescuing another four dogs
13:35so this is us trying to integrate 10 dogs together
13:39at the same time
13:41they are all from the same shelter
13:42but haven't seen each other for two weeks
13:45so how will Jockey react to all these dogs?
13:48Kobe come
13:49good boy
13:50alright Kobe is the first dog
13:54not from any of the shelters
13:56to meet all of the rescues
13:59we slowly let all the dogs through
14:01their meeting went well
14:02and last but not least
14:04to meet the dogs
14:05is Jockey
14:06the only dog left is
14:08this one
14:09who probably would have been the best to start with
14:12so open it up
14:14and it's Jockey girl
14:18Jockey who probably would have been the easiest to start with
14:20to be honest
14:22bless her look
14:23she's like
14:23no one gonna say hi to me
14:24Lola
14:26Jockey's having a good sniff
14:27Jockey is so gentle
14:29and so soft hearted
14:31what an amazing dog
14:34Kaya
14:34you are a girl
14:39so the dogs are starting to settle down a bit
14:42Kobe laying down
14:43Louis
14:45looking a bit unsure
14:46Zaza exploring
14:48Moki
14:49just not sure what to do with herself
14:50Bruno
14:52who is
14:53absolutely
14:54adorable
14:55like
14:55he is out
14:57and then
14:58Jockey
14:58oh
14:58Kaya
14:59Kaya
15:00Kaya
15:00no
15:02no
15:03I don't know why Jockey doesn't stop
15:05Kaya
15:05Kaya
15:06Kaya
15:06off
15:06Kaya
15:08so
15:08it's the next morning
15:09and this is how Jockey is getting on
15:11with all the new dogs
15:13Louis is being very brave
15:15hello Jockey
15:16hello Jockey
15:18Jockey and Louis look so similar
15:20hello Louis
15:22Louis smiles by the way
15:23look at him
15:24hello Jockey girl
15:26whereas Jockey you can see
15:27you kind of pet her
15:29and then she backs off
15:29so obviously I don't try and chase her
15:31hello Jockey
15:33hello Jockey girl
15:37and then Ella came down
15:39and this was Jockey's reaction
15:41good Jockey
15:44oh
15:49yeah he smiles don't he
15:50hello Jockey girl
15:52Jockey's little prances are adorable
15:55and we started to notice her slowly becoming best friends
15:59with our other rescue
16:00Becca
16:19is Jockey
16:20he's trying to play
16:23he's starting to come out of shell a bit
16:25he's starting to come out of shell a bit
16:26hello Jockey girl
16:36Jocky's progress has been amazing and over the next two weeks she had sessions with Dilnaz
16:42again and again and again and then we would repeat what Dilnaz did
16:48again and again and again until we finally got to this point.
16:57The past six weeks have been a lot of work but it's paid off because this is us
17:03chilling out in the lounge and amazingly with Jocky by our side but that's not all
17:08she then jumps onto the sofa to be next to Ella and yep that's Jocky on the
17:14sofa standing tall getting pets but it's not just Ella either because this is
17:19what she's like with me too. Look at how brave and adventurous she's even getting
17:24she's of course not perfect yet but to go from this when we first got her
17:30see Jocky is still a little bit unsure of me
17:33I'm not gonna force it obviously
17:35come on Jocky
17:37to this we're so proud of her. This does mean she's finally ready for her meet and greet
17:44but unfortunately we had someone lined up and they cancelled last minute
17:48so Jocky doesn't get the meet and greet we'd be training her up for but my
17:53friends came to visit her instead and this is the first time she's met a
17:56stranger but will she shut down again?
18:16we could not believe Jocky's reaction what an insane six weeks it's been if you
18:22live in the UK and are interested in adopting Jocky link to apply is in the
18:27description in the next video we rescued a literal fluffy marshmallow puppy which
18:32changes the dynamic with Jocky again be sure to subscribe so you don't miss out
