When it comes to anxiety, we all know that dogs are experts at making us feel better and they are almost universally good at comforting other humans.
It’s just a fact. That’s one of many reasons why they are considered our best friends. On the other hand, not every dog is like this.
There are always exceptions to everything in life, and some dogs might not be the best when it comes to socializing with other humans at first.
Some of them need some time and there is no better example of that than this dog from North Carolina who was adopted by her new owner to help her deal with anxiety.
The Dog Who Lied On His Resume

After adopting her dog, she noticed that the pup was different. When they got in the car, it became clear just how different he was.
The pup was shaking the whole time and he looked really nervous. It was clear at this point that he was not used to being around other people.
After taking him home, it became clear that he was a cuddlebug just like any other dog. All he really needed was some time with his new family and that’s how he prospered.

The woman who adopted him recorded the moment when he was shaking in the car. She noted that the dog she adopted was really the one who needed help with anxiety more than her.
Shortly after this, she uploaded the clip of her new dog on TikTok and the caption was: “The dog I got to help me with my anxiety.”
And, safe to say, it was a fitting caption for this pup. The short clip went viral and even the owner did not expect to see such an overwhelming response from other people.
So Many Responses On TikTok

The owner was shocked by the amount of comments people were leaving on the video and most of them were really hilarious.
One person commented: “At this point both of yall just gon head and get a prescription.”
Well, it sure seems that way. There is no way this dog is just going to get over his anxiety like that.
Another person said: “Now you gotta focus on helping with his anxiety which makes you forget yours”

Well, that is definitely one way of solving a problem… focusing on other problems so much that you forget your own is definitely some kind of a solution.
Lastly, somebody commented: “The way he looks like he’s looking through so many dimensions and seeing everything we can’t see would drive my anxiety through the roof.”
Yeah, seeing the dog’s face is oddly hilarious, but at the same time, it’s enough to make anyone feel anxious just looking at him.
Nevertheless, this pup most definitely no longer has to deal with any anxiety. Thanks to his wonderful family, he is living the best life.
