I have the same problem with Daisy. She will not let me brush her neck or belly. I shaved her belly over the weekend, but I just can’t shave her neck. When I brush her she will cry and act like im trying to kill her, but when I take her for her shots she's fine. At first I thought I was hurting her, but when I took her to the groomer and saw how rough they were I knew there was no way I could be hurting her. I also have a metal tooth comb and pin brush. Ill give her treats while im brushing her and once Im finished. But she's not even close to letting me do it without putting up a fight. I just don’t know what to do.

So I know what you’re going through, here’s to hoping our babies will grow out of it!
