| I cannot get Bella out from under the bed!!! I am not sure what is going on with Bella today. She was in my bed this morning, we went out and went potty. Then came in.....and about an hour later I couldn't find her. She was under the bed in the guest bedroom. I tried to coax her out. (I was in complete PANIC thinking she had gotten out somehow.) She came out, and RAN at break neck speed to my bed upstairs and under it before I could even touch her. She has been under the bed for 3 hours. I have called, coaxed with treats, even rang the doorbell and knocked on the doors, and she WILL NOT come out. I even tried to use Jett to get her out, by playing with him right next to the bed. (Normally she wants to play too and will not leave us alone, but NOT today) I cannot move the bed, it is a king sized sleigh bed with a VERY heavy wood frame and headboard with a HUGE mattress!!!!!! I don't know what to do??? I am worried she is sick or something, but I can't even 'see' her. I am getting really scared something is wrong. Any ideas please?!?!?!?!?!

| Sometimes they will hide when they are injured or in pain. Could she have gotten hurt while out this morning? Even something small, like a thorn in her foot. I would be worried too. You've already done all the things I can think of to get her out. Hope you find the problem soon. Let us know. Good luck.

| This may sound gross but...our first yorkie Baby would hide like that if she had a ..um..."dingleberry" stuck on the hair of her butt. That being said, Sophie likes to go under our bed to nap or chew her bone occasionally but she never stayed under more than maybe 45 minutes. Was she accidentally frightened? Sophie sometimes goes there when I run the vacuum.

| If you put your arm under the bed to reach her does she growl at you or is she just laying there? Sounds like she got scared by something or maybe isn't feeling good. I hope you get her out soon. My sons have the sleigh beds and they are very heavy. Hope Bella comes out and is OK! |

| I'm thinking that if you have a noodle (those foam pool toys) or other soft, long object like that, you could try to sweep her over to you without hurting her. Or maybe encourage Jett to go under there with her? She may not like him encroaching on her space and leave. |

2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | This may be a stupid question but is she pregnant? It's late in the day and I hope all went well...

| Tibbe is a rescue and will have a sudden fear from Lord knows where, though it doesn't happen now except occasionally. He goes under the bed or behind the far bathroom toilet way in the corner. I coax him out(use high value treat/food) and we go outside and play to get his mind off his fear and he's fine. First of all you need to be sure she is not ill or injured, etc., and if she checks out fine, then it might just be a sudden fear from some sound she heard or who knows. Distraction works well for my little dog. I hope you find out what is going on with her as she undoubtedly is not happy this way.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Could she have something she shouldn't. When my pom use to get something she wasn't suppose to have she would hide under the bed and not come out. I use to use a swiffer with the extended arm and gently chase her out. I hope Bella comes out and is not sick or injured.

| I hope you can persuade her to come out and that she is not hurt.

| Ok yorkies must be really silly creatures!!!!! She did in fact have a BIG dingleberry. I finally got her to one side of the bed, and reached under and grabbed her. Luckily she had a dress on, so I grabbed the dress, and pulled her to the edge. I felt kind of bad, because there is about 3-4 inches of room between the bed and the carpet I kind of had to lay her on her side, and mush her head into the carpet to get her out. But she really didn't protest at all!!! I got her cleaned up, it was NOT easy, was stuck on quite hard after that many hours. Now she is back to her old self. (I really can't believe they hide because of poo stuck on their butts. LOL)

| I THINK she was embarassed. Seriously!!!!!! She would not even LOOK at me, when I found the flashlight and was looking at her. She kind of hid her head under her legs and would peek out a little to see if I was still there. She would not even respond to her name at all. (I thought she had lost her sight and hearing.....LOL Thank goodness that wasn't it.!!) I got her out and she just tucked her head into my shoulder but wouldn't even pick her head up to look, me in the face. Once I got the poo off the butt hair, she was back to her old self.
