Slowly, we worked our way up to him sitting in my lap me touching clippers on back, him getting chicken. I can now say that yesterday was the first time he would let me comb his whole body and run clippers all over his body except front paws still working on that. We started this process about a month ago.
Are the clippers on while you run them over him? My harley hates just the noise of them.
