My guess is she dosen't dislike your grandson but is afraid of him.
You said you just got her. Is she a rescue? Most small dogs are
afraid of children because they move fast and are loud. Being new
in your home she needs time to trust you and her surroundings.
She must be afraid still. It will take time for her to trust.
Be patient. Don't scold her. Don't put your grandson in a position
that will make her snap. I would tell him to ignore her for awhile.
Give the dog a chance to take him in. To much too soon will
spook her. In time, maybe a week or so when she get's comfortable
in her surroundings have your grandson give her a treat. Don't have
him lean over her, that is a threatening position but have him sit
on the floor and give the treat and tell her good dog.
I hope it works out, I am sure it will. |
