Hi everyone I am new to this ,I need an advise for I am in a point were I dont know what to do with my new 2yr old yorkie female for I know it takes them a while to adjust to the change but I have had her for 4 days and ever since she shakes when she sees someone get a little close and I call her by her new name and she wont answer and I call her my her last known name and nothing so I call her by her AKC name (Cutie Pie) and nothing I try to make noise like sending kiss and telling her come on girl and padding my leg in a sweat voice and some times she replies but hardly I have heard her bark low only 2 times and I was told she is potty trained but it is obvious she is not she wont pee every wear but shes not trained and it seems like she was abused for I try playing with her and she shakes and runs to her bed so all this confused me I think she was abused but how can I help her outcome all this?How can I train her without scaring her more?She wont even walk with a leash so we wont take walks because I have to drag her for she wont walk and I saw she don't walk with leash so I rather carry her and talk to her but I don't do walks for I don't know what to do specially cause we have bad weather in my state.I brought my brothers Maltese over to play with her and she started running and follows him most of the time but still wont bark and when we pet snoopy out Maltese she licks us for attention and when we pet her he gets jealous and dose the same that's great sign and I tried taking her for a walk to see if it would make her feel secure and encourage her to do the same but nothing,I also forgot to mention she is in heat would that have something to do with it? she loves to be caressed and all she do is walk a bit around the house and sleep or lay down in her bed all day.I appreciate all your help and advice you all can give me for this is the 1st time I have to go thru something like this I have helped and raise a chow and the Maltese and a Dalmatian and never had nothing like this.So I'm confused on how to help her...ThanK you
