Yorkies are very sensitive creatures. But any dog would be overwhelmed by being taken from the home it has known all it's life and placed with strangers. Not knowing the actual history of both families it is hard to say what is actually going on. Sometimes we think we know people but at home the story may be quite different than what we assume.
Some small dogs do not like children and some do. They ones that are a bit nervous probably should not be around kids. Who knows what had actually taken place before the dog bite the child? I would suspect it was not out of the blue as it has been presented. |
