- This dog wouldn’t come inside. Then her foster mom discovered she was afraid of hardwood floors. Now, they’re working together so Hope can confidently walk into her forever home!

She may be frightened, but her whole rear end is swinging out of joy at the positive reinforcement. Well done everyone for getting her to push herself past those boundaries without forcing her

Congratulations to all! Patients, love & CHICKEN BISCUITS!!! 🤣😆❤️🐾
Well done❤️🐾🤙🏼
I would do the same thing for a chicken biscuit. {Run}
there was this animal show with the same type of behavior. the owners were trying to find out why their dogs were doing this. The show found out that both dogs with the same behaviors had knee problem and had their ligament torn. one was Maltese and one was black lab. So, when the floor slippery, they are in pain. one of the dog was only 1 yr old.
@@robertcuratolo5339 they are 🤤 yummmmmmy!
The patience of the foster mom, to put the time and effort into helping a dog that she wasn't going to keep, is amazing. The foster mom is a prime example of someone good in this world.
Yes it is , we could use a billion more people like her
Now days .
My thoughts exactly…
It's not a "foster mom", it's a new owner.
@Pat Aherne The first person is the foster mother. It takes a lot of patience and thoughtful actions to bring a scared baby to being able of being adopted.
I completely agree. I think the same about her adoptive mom. Very inspiring.
The “that’s ok I’ll buy rugs” really cemented that she was willing to what it takes to give Hope the best life
Buying rugs isn't really that much work lmao
Yes, I just loved to hear that 😍
@@moose8846 rugs can be very expensive, though.
@@deidrebath4840 especially to cover a whole floor
Should have bought her shoes.
Not only is this video heartwarming but I’ve also learned the power of the chicken biscuit. ☺️

Yeah I'd walk across wooden floors for a chicken biscuit.
Lol😄❣️
CHICKEN BISCUIT!!!!!
I guess Chicken Biscuit is the Klondike Bar for dogs
Imagine being such an incredible person, and having such a wonderful heart, that you don't even question the fact that your Dog needs the ENTIRE FLOOR COVERED COMPLETELY... that you just do it, no hesitation whatsoever!
And not a lot of ppl would do that for a Dog! This woman is awesome!
We couldn't afford to that for our big dog (rip) amd he didnt mind walking on the wood floor but we did go out and by rugs and boy him and his older brother were a force to be reckoned with and now we have two new pups. So now our oldest dog went from big brother to big dogs to big brother to two little dogs and he loves it.
I loved that she did cover her floor that way just a beautiful human!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I guess I don't have to imagine because I would do it in a heartbeat
I rescued an elderly dog that was completely unfamiliar with living in a house. It was so rewarding when she was finally able to come in and feel safe. My senior cat who is a former feral himself, lent a hand with the taming, showing her that affection a good thing and was an ambassador to the world of being a pet.
I love how animals teach each other. It’s a beautiful thing.
❤️ Thank you, for rescuing. ❤️
Such a wonderful thing to do-rescue a senior dog!
carrying her like a big baby at 0:46 always gets me LOL
That was so clever, tricking her to walk on towels and mats and slowly removing them. Btw those are gorgeous floors. Best wishes with your new family little princess!!
I love how these people took their time to help a dog with anxiety issues.
I never thought the phrase 'I'll buy rugs' would make me tear up the 😭
What a brave doggie!
My mom's dog had the same problem. At home she had a carpet floor, but on slippery floors he would just freeze. Sometimes he took a few steps without noticing anything, but as soon as he realized it was a slippery floor he just stopped walking and started shaking.

i think it could be the sound of dogs nails on the floor
Having had a chocolate lab with the same challenge and 13 years of observation I believe it is their depth perception and slick floors are confusing. If not depth perception I truly believe it is about the eyes and how they see or don't see things. He was somewhat OK throughout his life except when tired and when he was elderly.
@@antsynan
Prob each situation is unique and a check by a good vet for most as a precaution is a good idea.
@@antsynan That's interesting. I wonder if a dark slick floor looks like a hole, or dark water and they don't want to fall in?
She's a beauty.Her color and demeanor is wonderful.
These always get me !!! Love to give )))
Me too 🤗💞

Beautiful doggy. So glad that she got adopted and is overcoming her fear of wooden floors. 😊

Wonderful woman to go out of her way to help this dog get over his fear of floors.
Im in complete awe the lengths people go to help animals. Being an animal lover myself..my heart swells with happiness.
The lengths Hope's foster parents went through to make her comfortable and relaxed in their home is heart-warming. When her new Mommy said she would buy rugs to help with the pupper's anxiety about walking on wooden floors I knew Hope won the lottery! Let's be honest. Unless the floor is lava we all want that chicken biscuit cracker!
Amazing humans! I showed this video to my husband and he said: “ we are not the only ones to do extreme measures to make them happy” I really really admire the resvuer and the new mom. Loved to see this girl shine again
I love to see the foster family’s efforts~
Chicken biscuit is the hero as well~😅
Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
Oh she was so happy, that tail didn’t stop!! That’s great since so many people are getting floors!! She is adorable!
And this is what gives humans hope - about the capacity of other humans x
LOL - my mother used to own a very large golden labrador. He was a big bruiser and looked like he'd not be afraid of anything. Except slippery floor surfaces that is!
Her little ears are SO FLUFFY! What a good girl.
She is a BEAUTIFUL dog! All she really needed was love and time to adapt to her new surroundings! So happy you found her a loving home! 🐕 ❤
You gradually helped her overcome her fears, nicely done.
The hardwood floor is her *lava!* 😭 But chicken biscuits to the rescue. What an amazing foster/rescue mom.
I love dog stretching 😂❤️ it's the cutest thing ever. "Look, I can do yoga, arf."
The way Hope behaved in fear and hesitation to the wooden floors, I wonder if she had been brutally punished for having ‘accidents’ on the previous owner’s floors. She walked the hallway hugging the walls out of fear and expectation of some horrible punishment. Glad Hope is in her forever home full of love and care by her forever fur mom.
aweeeee my dog was the same way when she was a little puppy. if the floor was slippery, she was scared of it. she would cry in the livingroom because she didnt want to step on the floor. eventually she got use to it and was able to walk on it. took sitting on the floor and sliding back a little each day when she wanted pets till she was brave enough to have all 4 paws on the floor. once she had that, oh goodness she was running like a maniac lol. if she could speak, im pretty sure she would be shouting "FREEDOM!"
Yeah!!!❤❤❤❤
She’s so sweet. I’m beyond impressed at far you went to help her.
This is So Precious! She was given her Perfect Name.
She may have been strongly reprimanded in the past for walking on wood floors by a previous owner.
It took 2 weeks of work for my gal to feel sure that she was allowed on the sofa. And a year to be 100% confident that she was allowed up there whenever she wanted and was never going to be in trouble for it.
I did cry the first time she finally relaxed enough to fall asleep on my lap on the couch.
Their victories can sound small but they're so powerful because of the freedom and calm and happiness they can unlock.
What a great person for investing all that time and effort and having such patience and love to help this gal learn that it's ok to walk on wood floors. A home should feel like a safe place for everybody who lives there.
Amen!!!!❤
Nothing but love to give and time, beautiful!! God bless the rescuers 🌈🧡
one of our boys had a hip replacement at 18 months. After that he would usually only walk backwards on the tiles in the house. We put runner rugs down for him and he was fine with that. He was doing the backwards walk until the day he died.

My heart goes out to you and your loss.

To D.G. Is it too 🤔 "silly" to add that my last 2 losses of those I love ❤ were my sister and our heart's 💕 comforter, our furry baby, a dog? He was always a blessing, day after day, for our hearts and minds. He was perfect and perfectly made for each of us singly and together. He was family, consolation for the losses of our parents & her husband, and a continuing joy. Now I'm alone, an orphan, and I have 2 holes in my heart ❤ that are filled with them both. I am grateful for them and their love for me. Our pets are miracles for us, just like we are miracles for each other. I am happy for you that you had your precious child even tho' he had to leave you so soon. He was a treasure for you.
I had to add another reply. If you wish to read it, it is below. I couldn't leave you with my last reply because to me it is too shallow, maybe patronizing in my eyes. I wish good things for you. Your reply has blessed me; I only wanted to give something back to you.
How smart of you to figure out what her problem was! She is beautiful and sweet!!!
What a beautiful dog and a very smart person to figure out the whole floor thing !
I love a happy ending, well done to everyone that helped this lovely puppy!
Thanks for helping animals
What a wonderful adoptive mother she ended up with.
It’s so great that she found a new home where she’s loved❤️
oOoOO her keeping her hind legs out the door was sad and cute at the same time.

Even as she became more confident, you can see that she veers closer to the wall as she walks on the wooden floor. I suspect she's afraid of the light reflecting off the shiny floor.
I agree and was looking for a comment that thought the same as I do.

I don't think she can see clearly either.
What an adorable dog
Well you really did put lot of effort into helping your dog get rid of his fear.Respect
I love the way Cezar Milan handled this with a Great Dane who was scared of slick floors. He tricked the dog into walking onto the slick floors by keeping his attention with a toy, then once the dog was on the floors you could see a moment of shock, then acceptance as if, "Oh, I was scared of nothing. I've been playing on this floor without any issues." Good stuff!
Stretching soooo far to get to biscuit!; she's so funny, quirky and cute -- dogs are so fun to have around.
She's such a sweetheart 💕
I love these videos. Animals ask so little of us compared to what we receive. Seeing loving kindness towards them heals my heart.
My fur baby that we adopted, her name is Hope. However, whenever I would call her. She really never would respond to Hope. So, one day, I called her Hopie Girl. And she turned her head so fast, as if she told me........'it's about time you called me by my real name!'...lol.... And every now and then, I will call her Hope. But she really loves to be called Hopie Girl!
Hopie Girl Princess! 😉
I must have had ten nicknames for my fur baby, Duke. He responded to all of them!
Hope sounds like when she's in trouble and gets called the full name by mommy..
@@franksmith7247 ..... We had a spoil fur baby, her name was Legacy. She too had so many nicknames.....'baby girl, Leg, sweetie, darlin', leggy'.
However, her favorite was 'Baby Girl' I would always tell her.....'you know you're my Baby Girl'. And that was the last thing she hear as we had to put her to sleep. I told her.....'You'll ALWAYS be my Baby Girl!!'
*DODO* is my inspiration!! My mom said that if I got 32k subscribers!! She definitely buy me a professional mic!! *begging you GUYS alot* literally begging..
@@Luka-DanteGodofMischief ..... We're not to sure what kind of ground she had. However, when my husband's cousin had Hope. She was either left outside all day or left in the crate all day. Only let out when needed.
When she came to us, she pretty much made herself right at home. My other fur babies really didn't care for her. But she didn't care ...lol...
After a few days, that's when I started calling her Hopie Girl. Her reaction to it the first time, made me realize that she really liked Hopie Girl, better. Whenever she's being silly, we'll call her Hopie Dopey ...lol...
She has gotten so much better since she's been with us! She's a good Hopie Girl!
Thank you so much for being this patient😭😭😭😭😭😭 such a lovely doggo😍😍😍
I absolutely love this beautiful girl!!!! Whoever thought of the idea that she might be afraid of the floor, they’re brilliant!
I really appreciate Susan's effort for Hope
I took a tied-out dog that had NEVER been inside. For him bare floors were terrifying things. First day was straight to the vet who had an acre of poured floor, light colored and smooth and hard as glass. He spread-eagled. No amount of coaxing could get him on his feet and I think we sort of pulled him into the exam room on his belly. Skinny as a rail, mange bald, and turned out to have heartworms. Everyone who saw him said the same thing. Oh you poor thing! The most expensive dog coming in the door we ever had. When he was all vetted up and feeling better, there wasn't a happier dog on earth. Named him PT. Had him about 10 years. Worth every penny.
❤️
"Would you like a treat?"
_"Yeah but the floor is lava"_
"It's a chicken biscuit"
_"LET'S GOOOO"_
What are the rules to "The Floor Is Lava"? I think she won.
What a good, sweet, wonderful dog!
I'm balling 😭 So wonderful seeing people undo the wrongs done to animals. They deserve nothing but love.
What about the wrong that was done to the chickens in the chicken biscuits?
My dog is a puppy mill rescue, and he had a similar fear of the changes in the flooring. He’s still uncomfortable with grass. But he’s my soul-pup and rescuing him was one of the best choices I’ve ever made!
🤧 aww she's so sweet and gorgeous, alot of dog's have problems with wooden flooring, it's like glass to them. But your doing a good job, great video thanks 💖😁
Sometimes wags are coming from anxiety. She a sweet girl!!!
She's so beautiful and adorable.
What a little sweetheart! I've had too many dogs over the years, and the fear of slippery floors is very common. This one was a bit more phobic than most for sure. I'm glad you had the patience to get her through it. I'll keep those chicken crackers in mind. Thanks for sharing.
The patience is wonderful! It just takes time - sometimes even with dogs you’ve adopted as puppies. Thank you!
She looks like she is having so much fun learning and understanding new things. Just the patience with her to allow her to do it on her own vs forcing it was beautiful ❤️
This is the first time I have seen a rescue dog who was afraid of wood floors. I have to wonder what it is about them she doesn't like and I am so glad foster mom discovered that big fear and figured out a way to help that sweet angel over come her fear with those chicken biscuits.
A lack of socialization could do it. You're supposed to introduce puppies to different kinds and textures of turf to get used to them. Maybe original home only had carpet or she was born outside and never say shiny floors.
This is one of the reasons to take puppies to the beach, the park, pet stores etc. Not just to meet people and dogs but get used to different things in other environments.
This puppy will be the queen of her new home and rule with honer.
She's such a beautiful dog. If I wanted a dog (my cats would never forgive me, so I can't), I'd be happy to have a dog like her. I've done a lot of work with my rescue cats, and I'm sure dogs would repay all the effort you put into bringing them out of their shells, just as my cats did and do. She's a gorgeous creature, and one day she'll forget she ever had a problem with wooden floors! :-D
Her walk of Freedom! 😘
Thank you for being patient enough to understand her.
She's adorable! ❤️
The wood may have splinters in some parts, he could have hurt himself with that and that's why he is afraid of it, check your floors for any damage to avoid these traumas, I remember the girl who impaled herself on the wooden floor of her school while she was playing basketball
What a dear soul she is!!
She looks so gorgeous. I like her tail❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That's actually a beautiful dog. It looks like it might be a chocolate lab mix.
*DODO* is my inspiration!! My mom said that if I got 32k subscribers!! She definitely buy me a professional mic!! *begging you GUYS alot* literally begging..
Yes! She's gorgeous and so sweet!
What an adorable girl!!🥺💖 I’m so proud of her!
Hope's eyes 👀 when she got that chicken biscuit!! Thank you foster mom/family for really going there with her, giving her what she needed to grow past her fears. She's such a beautiful spirit & dog. I'm so happy she has a great mom & home now! I'll never look at Chicken Biscuits without a little tear & a smile!.😍😍😍🌟💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Thank you. So beautiful,
What a brave little doggo!
These give me a lift each day.
Love Is patient. Love Is kind.
What an amazing approach to help her! Thank you for helping her get through this.
"Chicken biscuit"😆😆😆Her name should be "Biscuit". Such a pretty girl!😍
Or Cookie.
I wonder if it is not the light reflection on the floor that scares her. She hugs the walls when on the wood. A dog whisperer is needed.
Aww she has such kind eyes.
She has beautiful eyes!!! The foster mom really prepared her for adoption🎉
Dogs are adorable 🥰
What a great story!
So glad Hope got a loving home.
She is a beautiful doggie!! ❤
Yes she is
Yay!!! What a sweet furbaby!
OH MYGOD SHE IS SO CUTE,
Nice work, really.
I love seeing people use positive reinforcement. I am a dog trainer and this was really well done. Sometimes it takes a while, u just gotta be patient and show them love. ^^
Wow is she beautiful!!!
Hope is adorable and so sweet ! 💖💖💖😘😘😘🐶. Thank you !!! 🙏🌷.
thank you for your kindness and patience to CB! chicken biscuit lovey doggy!

Love Chicken Bisket crackers myself...every Thanksgiving and New Years we have them with dip finger foods while watching parades and football before the big meal
She's gorgeous 😘 how cute she is. I love her ❤
These animal caregivers are angels
