How old was your baby when you got her? It is just possible she was not socialize properly as a little puppy. I got my first Yorkie, Dixie, when she was 7 months old. She had never been around anyone else except her previous owners. She was terrified of strangers and us when we first got her. It took her a while to adjust but she bonded to us but she is still very scared of strangers. She is now 11 years old and my little lap baby. Some puppies are just shy. You need to get down on her level, talk sweet to her, let her know how special she is and hopefully she with outgrow this stage....some never do. |
