Default puppy not wanting to come

Hi, I am new to forum. I just recently brought home a sweet 14 week old silky terrier. He seems to be a little shy and backs away when people want to pet him, myself and husband included. He is best with me but will still shy away at times. Is there any way to get him over this or is this a characteristic of silky terriers? He knows the sit command and we are working on come but his not minding is getting to be a problem. When in the house he is getting to not want to come when called, even when a treat is involved. I was just wondering how to best correct these issues. Thank you.
