Oh Potato is so lovely and so lucky to have found you! Such an adorable boy. It looks to me like he has some corgi in him.
Have a look at this heartwarming advertisement for a New Zealand company. Your story reminds me of this:

I also thought I saw some corgi in Potato, @KiwiMoose, in picture #5. @Anstarx, Potato looks like a very sweet dog who is adjusting quickly! In picture #2, the safe space looks like more than just a corner; it looks like it replicates the small caged environment Potato previously lived in. Dogs also like enclosed spaces where they feel safe, Which is why crates covered on the top sides and back with a blanket are preferred safe spaces for many dogs. It’s wonderful that potato has that space to retreat to and work her confidence up as she adjusts to her wonderful new home with you.

Our experience with adult rescues is that it takes at least a year for them to completely adjust, so you can expect to see new surprises emerging as your relationship grows. Our adult rescue from Spain, a Brittany we have now had for three years, is still developing new play behaviors. The Brittany we adopted from Texas in June doesn’t seem to really know how to play with toys, But in all other aspects seems to be well adjusted. We think he lived in a home before. The three Brittanys that were kennel dogs took much longer to open up and for us to see their personalities.

I am so glad you shared your joy over getting your new best friend! 💕🐕

I love this so much! My friend adopted a older dog from a puppy mill who did not know how to play. I think she was 6 at the time. Had never been out of her crate. She has learned and now tennis balls are her favorite thing ever! Potato is still young, he will learn so much with you. I can feel the happiness just looking at the photos. 🐾💕
