It's been over a week and she still runs from me. I don't approach her, and I don't make eye contact with her. I literally only pet her when she's in my mom's lap. I just found out they're just fostering her, so they never had paid for her yet, just so they can see if she'll be a good fit. So, at least it won't be so bad if they decided she's not a good fit for our home.
My other dog wants to play with her, and she won't play back. They're the same age, as well. She'll calm down at night if we play some calming music, but my mom is on the fence around keeping her or deciding to give her back to them. At least she wouldn't have lost any money if she did. And I'd understand it and won't be against it. I just spoke out about it when my dad brought it up after 2 days because that's not long enough. A week may not be long enough, but it's at least a somewhat decent amount of time. Gives my mom time to think about it. But at this point, she's more of a one person dog, not a family dog.
