You just seem to sweet for not to warm up to. She is just young yet and everything is so new. You'll see, this will pass and she will adore you to the point you can't do anything wrong. Just be patient! Sue :animal-sm |
Aww don't worry too much she will be fine. when i first brought Mignon home my boyfriend was playing fetch with her and accidentally smashed her in her face with the toy. She didnt speak to him for a week or better. She just couldn't let it go, eventually she started playing with him again and now she adores him. She still will not play with that toy tho. If you throw it she brings you another one, just in case.. LOL |
One thing I've remembered for a long time I learned from a parenting class. To a small child your hand is the size of his/her head, just imagine a hand coming at you that size. I would think it would be worse for something as small as a Yorkie. I can remember being a little girl, it seemed from my memory that I only reached up to this neighbors knee. It felt like I had to look up forever to see his face. I don't know how tall you are but all of a sudden maybe she realized how big you are. I like Villette's suggestion of getting down on the floor with her. Maybe you could lay in the floor to watch tv and let her cuddle in the crook of your arm. Sylvia |
IMO , you should give the puppy a chance . The pup is in adjusting time . Sometimes peoples are asking too much at the same time from a puppy . |
maybe at the breeders a man either hurt or or disciplined her so thats why she is afraid of you. |

If you baby talk to her or suk up to her you will be rewarding her for her behavior to run and hide. Just tell her No....not in a harsh voice and pick her up. Then just walk around with her or put her on your lap, act like it is not such a big deal at all. That is my advice. I would take her out to socialize around more men too. Get other men to hold her. |

You should give her a chance , she is just 9 weeks old . She have to adjust to you and your home . I am sure , she will not be afraid of you for long . Talk to her with a calm voice . All she needs is time to adjust . I already have pups that react like her and the wrong advice would be to talk to her with a loud voice because you'll scare her much than she is now . As I already said , be calm , tell her that you love her and be patient with her . |
The vet thing may be the cause. I would try to be as loving as possible. Don't force her. Let her come to you. When I take Maggie to the vet, the nurse comes to get her and they give her the shots when I am not around. This way, Maggie doesn't hold it against me, but she does PP on their floor. You might ask them if they will administor the shots without you being in the room. She will be fine. The one that feeds, clean up, plays, naps with---is the alpha that they look up to. |

omg that happened to me!!! lol My shep had me so upset cause he started acting extremely submissive but only towards me. Two weeks later i found out i was prego. He finally started acting normal a few months after the baby was born. I guess that wouldnt apply in this situation though cause well its the man in this case the puppy is acting submissive to. |
Dogs go through a period at 8 weeks or so when they become easily scared it is explained well in this article stages a pup goes through |
