Hi, my baby is 15 weeks old, I got her when she was 8 weeks.

I started to brush coat and teeth immediately, but I do it as she is falling asleep for a short snooze. For some reason, she comes to me when she is tired, and I snuggle her then, and then its possible to do our "daily hygiene".

Presently, she lets me brush, while we watch TV. So, give it time, she WILL get use to it, but dont miss a day, be consistent.

As for the biting, I just use a firm NO!, as some have advised on this forum, its getting better too. Now she only bites, playfully, but not enough to puncture, if she crosses the line, I immediately put her down, and repeat a firm NO BITE.

NOW...if we could only get across the puddles are suppose to be made OUTDOORS!!!


Scratchies to all the babies...
