OK you guys have me motivated! Wrigley is already 3 years old and I agree he does have us trained. Its just that when he cries out he makes a sound like someone has stepped on his paw and then it scares me and I back off. My 13 year old daughter is the best at staying calm and sticking with it.
I'm going to get him groomed, buy some detangling spray, and start with the really short sessions every day. Also, that was a good idea someone had to wash his face every day, and then I'll have to go through the torture of combing him! I know I have a bad attitude but it drives me crazy. When you brush his back you can see in his stance that he is on high alert for the smallest amount of tension, then he shrieks out. But I'll stop whining now and work on it. Thank you everyone for your replies!
