I roll her on her back, either on the couch or on my lap (just like I do to cut her nails) and put them on...and just like with the nail cutting, after she's been a good girl and let me do what I need to, she gets a treat.

It only took a couple of times for her to realize, there's no choice other than to cooperate, and there's a treat at the end of it. She runs to the kitchen & is sitting waiting for her treat before I can even get up & walk there.
