Maybe try to move slow when she is on the floor. Think of how huge you look to such a tiny pup. That is why they back up and act afraid sometimes when you approach them from a standing position. She is used to little ones like herself. She will eventually realize she is in her new home but the first few days can be rough.
She won't start to have any real bladder control until she is past 16 weeks so it's good to have a pee pad near by at all times at this point.
She is so beautiful. It can be kind of stressful being the new mommy of such a little baby but it is a real bonding experience, too. It gives everyone puppy fever to see someone get a new baby. Congratulations. |
