| Terrified little yorks My yorkie is 11 months old and is absolutely terrified by any other dog, big or small. He is even frightened of puppies that are half his size. He has always been this way, I remember when he was younger he would start crying if smaller dogs came up to him. He's fine with people, actually he loves people and all their attention. He doesn't really interact with any other pets, mainly because he freaks out as soon as they get close. I'm told I should 'socialize' him, but if I try to take him to dog parks and other dog areas he gets really really scared and upset. Does anyone have suggestions? |

| Hi What about taking your pup into a store that sells dogs and cats. That way you can carry him, and he can see them and be protected in your arms and on the other side of the glass Hope you find something that works

My suggestion is a puppy class. Do they have them near you?
