Any suggestions on making brushing an easier chore for the both of us? |
How I got my baby's used to the brush is I would only brush a small part of their body, like maybe one leg, then I would let them go run and play and forget about the trauma they just went through getting the one leg combed or brushed, then a little while later I will do another part of their body's all the while praising them, giving them kisses and treats. I got to admit though I've never really had a problem with my baby's. Since they were born I've been getting them used to being handled. Do me a favor and sit on your couch grab your baby and lay her on her back, act like your checking her for stuff touch her feet, open her mouth and check in side, if she sits still for that, give her lots of love and treats and next time use the comb or brush on her, if she does not sit still then that means she is not submitting to you. When pups are about a month old the breeder should atleast for one hour everyday handle them, touch their feet, open their mouths and look around, check their ears, and comb a small part of them every single day eventually they will get used to being groomed.
