How can I help with Sophie's shyness? I've tried to calm her down and make her spend time both outdoors and indoors. When I try to pick her up she tries to runaway and hide in the tiniest of corners. When I do catch her I stroke her nose and try to calm her down, I don't want to cause her any distress.
I know in the past people have mentioned feeding treats with bunnies etc. But I want to give her something other than food to make her feel more of a connection with me.
She was bought from a breeder at the Romsey Show, I think her breeder mistreated her although I can't be 100% sure. As she does coward over the smallest of things like noises on the TV and people moving (I know we're large and scary) ...
Eeek help?? Any success stories etc? I have considered maybe getting another shy bunny and help them along together. Flopsy is just so dominant he is neutered as well
