Hi all!
I just got my new baby..., but not directly from a breeder (don't-shoot-me). I got her Sunday, and she was really shy at first - she's warmed up a little, but she does sit in corners and runs away from me/the family occasionally. She likes sitting in her comfy crate more than exploring.
She hasn't been very active or eaten much and I'm getting worried now. I've tried giving her dry food with wet food, but she just eats the wet food and leaves the dry food behind (if she eats at all!)
She's also easily scared and is shaking a lot (I'm not sure if they're related?)
I read that puppies that are not properly socialized at 16wks have problems at adults and I'm worried that this might be the case. I'm not sure how long it'll take for a puppy to get adjusted to a new home.
I also get really worried and I'm not sure when I'm over-worrying and when I'm justified.
If anyone has any helpful tips, calming words or anything, I'd really appreciate it. I hope there isn't anything terribly wrong with my baby.
Thanks!
