I don't get it. My sav is used to me cleaning the cage, runs to me for food, lets me gently move him out of the way, but as soon as I try to pick him up....BAM! tail whip, hissing, biting......
He will run up to get food and run over to the door when I enter the room but he WILL NOT allow me to try and pick him up. How do these people get these puppy dog tame savs? At the rate this one is growing, tripled in size in less than a year, he will be a huge and unruly in another year. I try maybe once a month to see if he will let me pick him up. Never works. Is this normal and the tame savs are the exceptions?
