    My alpaca farm is only 14 months old and I have so much to learn! I am having an ongoing problem with my 3 year old female, Somona. She will cush if she thinks I'm going to touch her. We had to lift/drag her to have her sheared last year. Getting a weight on her is impossible. She will cush even if she isn't the target of my "visit"; evidently she thinks she's next and may as well surrender. Any suggestions? Thanks.
