 Please help
Hello - I have two sweet Yorkies - Rylee Jo and Lexie Lou. I need help with Rylee. Last year she was outside and the neighbors little boy came running over and tried to catch Rylee. I was telling the little terror to stop but he continued to chase her up the patio stairs. She was terrified and now is afraid of children and cowers in fear. Of course her natural instinct is to snap at them and that concerns me. Her little sister Lexie follows her lead and has started to cower when approached. I never leave the girls unattended but last night when we were out for a walk - another neighbor and her children were outside. The girls cowered in fear and as I bent down to calm them down the neighbor girl approached and Rylee snapped at her. What can I do to help her because I do not want her to bite someone. It makes me sad that she was so scared in the first place and that it literally changed her personality and is having a negative impact on the way Lexie is around people, mainly children. Please advise me on how to help my little princess. I would appreciate it.
Thanks!!! |
