It was around 1AM after midnight and i was thirsty, so i decided to get a soda in the fridge and when i reached the living room to get there i hit something soft with my foot and heard a yelp, so i cautiously traced my steps back to turn on a nightlight to see my 4 month old chihuahua (that sleeps in the kitchen) whimpering. He obviously heard me coming and since its a small breed and most of my house floor is layered with carpets, i wouldn’t hear or see him wake up to greet me (i took off his tinkling leash/dog tag for a bath the day before)
I bent down to try comforting him and but he ran back to his unlocked playpen and now i feel bad lolXD

No.
Showing the dog nothing was meant by it with a quick rub on area hit or petting it, would tell the dog that all was well and nothing, no reason for concern, it would be quickly forgotten with the puppy carrying on as normal.
Accidents happen and the pup will not sit there and fret about what happened.
They don’t usually hold grudges, no, but he probably will be scared of you for a bit, thinking you’ll hurt him again. Just be really nice to him for the next few days until he’s comfortable about approaching you again, and you’ll be fine. Remember, everything you have is a gift, including animals. Just keep telling him he’s a good boy, pet him gently, give him treats and apologize to him until he comes to you eventually. And be careful the next time you’re thirsty in the middle of the night
Not likely that he will hold a grudge. I have accidentally done this to mine when got right behind me. Be sure to comfort him, tell him he is a good dog and check to make sure his paws are ok. It is very easy to break a bone since they are so small. Also be sure to put the collar back on so that you can hear him
You are the sweetest! No it might be wary of you for a while but it won’t hold grudges. Give it a lot of hugs:-D Bring a flashlight from now on :0
Lol this made me laugh
It’s nice how caring you are and how deeply you think about these things. I’m the same way. That’s why this is funny coz I’m not the only one. But yeah, dogs don’t hold grudges. They’re nice.
No, it’s fine! It happens to me sometimes, my dog lies under my desk and I move my foot and it hits her because I forgot she was there 😮 She doesn’t hold a grudge against me and will still lie there all the time, so don’t worry 🙂
No…dogs do not hold grudges over isolated incidences but he may be wary of your feet for a while as they do not forget frights very easily. Just act normal and he will eventually get over it.
No, your dog wont hold a grudge against you. I have accidentally stepped on my dogs paws before. He will forget all about it within minutes.

No, he’ll love you regardless.
It’s cute how much you care.
