We had a problem with brushing Rosie when she was a puppy. Me and my sister would corner her in the room and every time we barely touched her with the brush she screamed liked we were hurting her. I thought our neighbors would call animal control on us. Talking about a big drama queen.

I agree with others about addressing the issue at home. What we did was after ever brush stroke we gave her a treat, then after every other stroke she got a treat, etc. She finally associated brushing with something good and now enjoys it as long as her hair doesn't pull. Good Luck and hopefully you'll find a groomer again.
