Picture a big (no comparison intended)monster bending over you. Sissy would back away if you tried to pick her up. She got a lot better with us sitting on the floor and calling her to us and giving her a treat. Then we gradually increased our height-on knees, squatting, then bending, finally uprite. Now she will come to us and sit in front of us to be picked up or get her coat on to go out but it took a lot of patience.
