They are missing their mother and sibling companions and are confused. Be patient and gentle with them. After a while they will imprint on you. You will become the new focus of their world.
Their shivering may be because they are cold. Sparse hair, little fat, and small size all make it difficult to keep warm.
Or they could be tramatized. (Were they mistreated before you got them.) That will make the process much longer, so be patient.

Coming into a new home can be very frightening and stressful for any animal. Remember, these puppies are just babies, and they need lots of love and reassurance.

Try sitting down with them on your lap, wrapped in a towel or something like that. Stroke them gently, and make soft "shh" sounds, or talk to them gently, to soothe them and let them know they are safe. You're the closest thing they've got to a mum now!

Puppies will learn very quickly to associate you with obtaining food. Start out by offering them tiny bits of chicken, or getting them to lick some pet milk off your fingers. These are little things you can do to let them know you mean them no harm, and that you're going to look after them.

I'm not sure if it's similar with puppies, but when I got my cat (when she was just a little kitten), she found it relaxing to curl up on my chest. When they are young, puppies and kittens cuddle up to mum a lot for warmth and comfort (as well as for feeding), so the sound of a heartbeat is relaxing to them. You could try it, and see what happens.

It does get easier with time, but right now you need to make sure those puppies feel safe and comfortable in their new home with you. Best of luck with your new little babies!

Moveing to a new home and new things is diffacult for animals and they probably miss there mother.

Only 5 weeks old - it's a scary new world/adventure - with a little time and Love, they'll be just fine, don't worry...Take care !!

Im not sure why they are scared but according to a dog trianer I no the best thing to do is ignore the fear and make sure not to change your facial features when they show fear they may think that you want them to react fearfully when you do that certian thing or face when trying to compensate for them

At 5 weeks old, these puppies should have never been taken away from the mother and their siblings. It's way too early. They should still be nursing some from mom! I believe it's against the law for someone to sell a puppy, before 8 weeks of age. My suggestion is, for the welfare and future proper development of the puppies, they should be returned to the mother and siblings, for at least another 3 weeks, then bring them home. A Vet will tell you the same thing!!!

LEAVE THEM ALONE! LET THEM COME TO YOU OR ELS THEY'LL ASSCIOATE YOU WITH FEAR.

They were probly not socialized very much. If they hadn't been played with much this would cause them to be scared of people. Just keep trying to play with them and they will come around.
