I have a yorkie boy who is 16 weeks. He is as stubborn as they make them. Brushing his hair is a major production and he has very fine hair. I took him to the groomer last week and the only thing she could do was give him a short puppy cut. I hate to have to keep his hair so short but don't want to make this a major fight every time I try and comb his hair. He's cold, we live in the great northeast and I wonder how I get him to stop fighting me. He bites and growles and I am ready to smack him if he wasn't so cute. Any suggestions.. my other dogs love to be brushed. Will he grow out of it and eventually let me comb his hair or will I always have to keep him in a puppy cut?
