I have a 3yr Pit Bull named Indika. I got her when she was 6 weeks old from just some guy selling them. I fall in love with her when I saw her, she stood out from the rest. When she was younger she was pretty much like a normal puppy expect that she seemed a little more timid than most. As the years went by its gotten worse. Now she is terrrified of loud noises, and people. Shes only really is ok around me. In my home it consists of myself, my boyfriend (who has been in her life for about a yr now) and my youger brother (17yrs old) and Honey, our little Yorkie who is 6 months old. Now Indika does well with other dogs-male or female. I haven't had her around any other bigger female dogs though. However with Honey she is so amazing & motherly and patient. With children she is terrified of them, she has never ever snapped at a child or anyone but she shakes really bad when anyone new is around or petting her. The only time I have noticed she is ok and doesn't shake is when the person is really calm and actually ignores her.
I love my dog so much and it really breaks my heart to see how scared she is. She is so apart of me and my family and it hurts me to see her go through this. I was thinking about putting her through some dog training. Do you think that will help her or no? Or will that remain to be her ways forever? In some desperate need of ideas, suggestions, advice?
Thanks!

- You got a poorly bred pit bull puppy at 6 weeks! No wonder it has problems. Honestly you can try a trainer or behaviorist but it could just be her personality.
