Do Tortoises like having the back of their shell lightly scratched?

My Russian does not care for it at all. Scratching on the back of her shell is how I get her out of her burrow when needed. She turns around and comes out swinging.

She’ll tolerate the occasional head scratch but I don’t push it.
