Winston is about 3 months old and Grooming him is near impossible and dangerous. Id like some advice. This is how I groom winston...I brush him daily using very gentle strokes for the larger tangles then I use a small comb around his face and feet where he sometimes gets knots. We have our daily ritual where I put him in my lap and brush him. He does okay when I brush his back and chest but when I get anywhere near his whiskers or under his eyes, he FREAKS! He yelps and squirms and eventually growls and shows his teeth. I know grooming will be a huge part of his life and he needs to learn to accept it. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks Much!@
