how do you put the word shy in a sentence?

Answer 1

Just use it as an adjective (meaning apprehensive or hesitant) to describe a person or animal:
My dog never barks because she is too shy.

Or use it as verb meaning "to back away" or "to shrink back":
The dog shied away at the man's clenched fist.

Hope this helps!
