Since I'm the one that does all the "bad" stuff to Mitzi like bathing, brushing, toe nail clipping etc. I'm not on top of her list either and I made the experience that I should not do those things while we are on our cuddle and tummy rub place but take her to another place where we do all those things. Now she knows she can come on my lab when I'm on the couch and nothing "bad" will happen to her.
I wish you'll find out how to climb up in the pack order and have more fun! |
Totally agree. I had this issue with our German Shepherds. It was disconcerting, but it did get better with suggestions on the pack order. Best of Luck.
