This is a very dangerous time so do not allow your child around her until you find out what is going on. Many Yorkies come in scared to death and are very fear aggressive - which means they will bite. Also many Yorkies do not like children especially when they have not grown up with them or grew up with them and it was not a positive experience. Yorkies will usually be sweet at first and then they do become more terrier.
Do not and I repeat, do not start attempting to show her who is boss (pack leader) or it will only get worse. She needs some space of her own and some quite time until she relaxes.
How much exercise is she getting with you? Where does she sleep? |
I got her from a rescue that had her placed in a foster home, and i recently talked to the owner of the rescue and i was informed that sassy has been adopted before and return to rescue before and before that they got her from a shelter. So im thinking she does not trust anyone just yet since she been moved around alot . i walk her 30min to 1hr a day and she sleeps in her crate
