I have rescued many neglected yorkies. At first they were really isolating themselves. But as I gave them a nice warm bed, good food and a gentle voice they started to come around. The more time I took talking to them they started to trust me and would then follow me everywhere. Over time they would allow me to pet them and not long after that they started to jump on the couch and sit next to me while petted them until that final moment when they jumped into my face and showered me with kisses. It will happen you just have to take it slow and be consistant with your love and attention. They know and probably sense that they were in the way and now they are confussed so give them time and a real chance at being the loving little critters that they are. Be patient and hopefully with a real true effort on your part they will come around. |
