I groomed for decades...MANY were wild with their owners, but knew when they came to my house to be groomed, they were expected to behave for me and most did..some were still a bit craZy and it took extra time..but in time they learned.
I used to take a hold of their head in my hands...look them in the eye and tell them I was the alpha bitch, in a firm voice. Never had a Yorkie who did not enjoy visiting...they knew they got chicken as a treat when it was over...and they got to play with a new toy...and the owner wanted to know if I drugged them..why did they allow me to groom them and they could not..you know how kids act up for parents and not others..LOL |
