Give him treats during grooming until he gets used to it. Grooming used to be the equivalent of war in our house. Now Gracie just lies there and loves it. You must brush every single day. Gracie has not had one mat since I finally understood that she had to be groomed every day. YEAH! Before that, I had to work on mats all the time. I used a razor cutter on her mats and they work great. If you have to shave to start over, do so, but then be sure to brush him every day. There was some good advice given on this thread.
