The pup does not have to have contact with the child to be afraid. Fast movement and loud noise can both be factors that can scare a puppy. If he is afraid of the child you have got some issues to deal with.
Your puppy is 14 weeks old and 6lbs? Is it all Yorkie or is it a mix? I ask because that is quite large for a Yorkie pup. The terrier breeds tend to be quite excitable. You might want to keep your child away from the pup when he is playing or running around. You don't want a dog that is afraid of your child. You want their interaction to be peaceful and non threatening. |
