Yesterday we bought 4months old shihtzu puppy. He is eating and drinking properly but not active at all. Not responding properly. If I am giving him treat he is eating but he is not making an effort from his side to take the treat. Tried taking him for walk but he is sitting in one corner and sometimes shivering. Whenever I hold him he hold me very tightly. No running, no walking. Whenever we leave him, he trues run and hide somewhere. What to do in this case ? Why he is not becoming friendly with us ? It’s so painful seeing him like this.

It's a new environment for the pet it takes time to get settle down and adjust to ur home entertainment, so no need to worry and give h the same food which was given by the old owner and also give some toys to play

My dog( 1year old shihtzu ) is a very picky eater, i have tried everything that a dog might like for example rice, curd, vegetables,sweet potatoes. He starves himself until he gets chicken and for obvious reasons i cannot feed him chicken all day, what to do And some other dog parent suggested me to stop feeding him kibbles because it is packed food and home made food is healthier for dogs, is that true?
