Hello there, I have a 9 month old puppy called lulu, she's a sweetie with not a bad bone in her body, she loves to play and snuggle but only with humans?! 4 weeks after we had her once she had all her jabs we starter taking her to puppy classes and puppy meet ups she hated it all from the minute she got there, she would hide and completely ignore other dogs, admitted the first time we went the bigger dogs where a little rough with her but nothing that puppies wouldn't normally do. She only has one other yorkie friend who she likes to play with and that is all. I my aunt recently got a tiny little s**tzu who is maybe 1/3 the size of Lulu and she is still really scared she doesn't like to be near it and will hide when the puppy tries to play but when she is hiding and stuff her tail is still wagging happily?! I was wondering what I can do to get her used to this puppy as they will be spending ALOT of time together over christmas and is this a typical yorkie thing to do?

Thank you!

Jazz & Lulu!
