This poor little girl left the only home she knew..good or bad and she is depressed. She doesn't know if you are good or bad or if the other dogs will hurt her. She must be wondering what happened to her first mom. Given time and alot of patience she will come around. She also might not have been very socialized in her first home or had alot of contact with people so she is just frightened. For some of the older dogs it is fairly easy but for some it takes awhile. I have one that has taken over a year to get her to stay in the family room with the rest of the gang. She was a breeder dog that was dumped in the desert when they were done with her. You just need to give her some space and no fast movements around her. Do you have a kennel for her that she can go in if she wants? The other lady might have kept her in a cage a large portion of her life. Mine like to go into a kennel with the door left open. They feel more secure.
