[Roxiesmama]

Roxie can be very affectionate. She loves to lounge on the couch with us, play fetch with us, and give doggy kisses. She does not, however, let us pick her up willingly. If we try to pick her up, she runs away. If we try to pet her and she *thinks* we are trying to pick her up, she runs away. If by some chance we do corner her and pick her up, she doesn't struggle to get down. She puts her head on my shoulder like a little baby.

What could be the deal here? Even our trainer said he thought it was odd that she seemed so afraid to be picked up.
