do you use conditioner when he is bathed? And is he brushed everyday? Im sorry your frustrated. I started brushing my puppies when I had some at like 2 weeks. You know just a stroke here or there, laid them on their backs and brushed gently their bellies, by the time they were ready to go to their families they were pretty good, still didnt like it but good.
I brush all mine in the morning on a stand, bows in, everyone gets a treat, and at night in my lap right before bed. At nighttime everyone scatters but they get it anyway. Even brushing twice a day they have some snarls, especially the ones that scratch from alergies. I have one that has a cross of cottony/silky hair and though she is beautiful coated, I have to pay particular attention to her belly area and under her arms. Sorry didnt mean this to be so long, just keep at it, they will soon learn its just part of the routine. |
