I would start off lightly with him.. say on your lap. With a light misting of detangler ( never brush a dry coat) and praise him during the whole process. At the very end of your session ( make them short to start) but frequent. Place him onto the grooming table ending the grooming session with one more light brushing ( praise and reward)
He will get the hang of it
Best Wishes

He has a lot of coat (Biewer) and needs to be kept tangle free, or I will run into big problems. He is a little love, and very affecionate; but the terier in him says forget it to grooming. Any ideas?  |
