Default Strange Behavior

I have a 3 yr old terrier mix. Her name is Sadie. She has always been fine until recently. She is scared to be around me thinking I will hurt her because it seems like if I touch her a certain way she yelps and runs to my husband and is shivering. As far as her daily activities nothing has changed. She eats and drinks and goes out normally with no problem. She will come to me when its time to go out but if I want to just pet her she hestitates. I am planning on calling the vet soon. I am waiting on some money to come in so I can pay for the vet. Any suggestions?

As Sonofdog said, it helps to know exactly how and where you were touching
her. Does your husband do the same?
Are you the one that has to clip her claws or clean her ears, sometimes
sensitive dogs will start yelping if they *think* you are going to do this.

I am just trying to pet her like I normally would. I think I found
the

problem I felt her left paw and she yelped so I am thinking something is
wrong with it. I didn't even think about it because she has been walking
fine. So am taking her to the vet ASAP


Thats a good idea. let us know how you get on.
Alison
