When Jazzie was young, she wanted to play play play with Zander... so I would hold her, sure she wanted me to put her down but I held her, sometimes I would give her something to chew on while I combed her or just touched her, she eventually accepted that she was going to have some lap time. Now she is 2 and she can't get enough lap time. It's all part of the training, plus it teaches them to calm down and have some quiet time. Good luck.
