Hi there and welcome to the forum

How old is Mystery? Can you think of anything that may have triggered this sudden behaviour?

mystery just turn 2yrs and she was fine until last week.

Hi and welcome to the forum from Rocky and me.

you may need to start the socialisation again, if so please take a look at the link below:

It is unusual for a dog to display a completely new behaviour with no trigger.

I agree with Kathy, I would go back to the basics of socialisation, ease her back into it, make her realise that she has nothing to be afraid of.

Don't baby her too much though, that will only reinforce the behaviour

Another thing that usually changes behaviour very suddenly is pain, is she in pain in any way whether its her ears/paws/hips/joints/teeth?

Hi and welcome from us and Suki. Have you taken her to a vet to see if there is a physical problem?
