Roxy didn't like being brushed when she was young. Was constantly wanting to chew the brush, preventing me from brushing. I just kept at it, gave treats/praise for being good when appropriate. Gradually she just started accepting that this was just part of life. Now she seems to enjoy it. It took quite awhile though. Just keep working at it.
Make sure the brush feels good against her skin. I don't use the wire brushes. If it doesn't feel good against my arm, I don't use it. |
