Gracie wouldn't bite the brush but would squirm and try to get down and would get hurt the way she struggled, this was when I first got her, now when I put her on her back she squirms a bit but then stops. All I did, and this may seem a bit harsh but it worked, everytime I would groom her and she would go crazy sqirming I would scruff her and as she's slightly hanging I would brush her, I'd do that for about a few seconds, put her down, she'd be calm for a minute and when she wiggled again I'd scruff her again. I'd tried the bribing and the kisses and treats and such and it didn't work, scruffing her did.
to get her to lay on her back I would put my hand on her and hold her there till she stopped wiggling, if she didn't stop then she'd be scruffed again.
