Give treats when you brush your baby. And make it a daily thing for you to do. Brush your baby 3 or 4 times a day until it just becomes the usual for him and hes used to it. Then you can start brushing him once or twice a day. That will be enough unless you just aren~t brushing him enough. In that case, you might want to try a detangling spray. I hate having to shave down Yorkies when customers come in just because they tell me, he wont let me brush him! Its always the other way around. They let their yorkie win the battle. And that just results in your yorkie training you whereas you should be training him. Good luck!
Thanks for the support and reminder to keep at it...give treats..etc...

Your right. Its hard to keep doing something that our baby's dispise...lol

But..the treats..and just doing it many times daily...may help just get them to THAT IS JUST THE WAY IT IS...lol

And we should be training them.....
Not the other way....thanks for that too~

Sometimes its nice to hear what we already know...lol
