My dog does not like to be brushed after a bath in spite of much coaxing with sweet words and favorite treats etc etc. He just runs away and hides. Today I tried another approach, Time Out in the kitchen for 10 mins - that he does not like and wails about! When I went in to get him he was so quiet and let me pick him up and brush him with no problem. Hooray!
Do others find this TO works when all else fails??? Or perhaps I am just a slow learner and this is obvious?
Also do any other dogs here not like being brushed after bathing?
Thank you.
