My dog has been abused by a relative. It happened when I wasn't at home. He kicked my dog when my dog was sleeping. Since then he doesn't bark or howl even when he sees a cat or another dog or when he is playing. He is so silent. I really want to know how to make him bark again. I want him to be able to defend himself. Please help me.

Your dog needs to trust again. Speak to him in a soft voice. Approach him gently. If he allows you, pet him
Your dog may have more than a trust problem-could the idiot who abused him have caused his current problem? Please take him to your vet ASAP to check on any possible injury to his neck or vocal chords etc.
