Yeah my friend's yorkie did the same thing. I watched him for 3 days and in that 3 days he didn't eat. What I did was just leave him alone. I went about my normal routine and let him explore a confined area on his own. He was really skittish so I try not to make any sudden moves and I didn't try to pick him up. I just let him sit in his little bed and observe us. I was trying to convey to him that he was safe which worked because the little stinker wanted to play fetch at 3:00 in the morning
. He literally jumped on the bed and dropped his ball on my face.
Just give her a place where she feels safe and let her be. Also check to make sure she isn't peeing when you are not looking. Little Scooter would sneak a bite or two but he would eat in front of me and he also hid when peeing. I didn't realize how much he had pee until after he left.
