Have you tried putting the loop on her yet? Gracie wears a cat collar so she has her tags on in case of emergency. The cat collars are break away so your dog won't get it caught on anything and get hurt.
I also have one of those little grooming stands with the round turntable. You are wise to put it on the floor as you are getting her trained to stand on it. Depending on how skittish she is you may have to go a little bit at a time until she feels safe on it.
Gracie never had a problem with the loop thing but she was used to wearing the cat collar anyway. I never put it on her tightly enough that she even felt restrained by it. But she does know the words "sit" and "stay" and that helps a lot. |
