 Grooming is traumatic
My 4-month old baby got some serious mats on her when she was at the vet's for two weeks. I cannot get them out. I got some detangling spray, but she hates being sprayed, squirms, whines, claws at me, etc. She hates brushing as well, and does the same thing (clawing, squirming) making it impossible to do anything productive bushing-wise. She's not old enough to go to groomer's yet to get the mats removed. I'm tearing my own hair out worrying about getting her mats out. Any advice about how to do this, stress-free? She also needs her nails trimmed, but I'm not looking forward to more "trauma." What's a mommy to do? |
