Teri, can you have someone hold Galen while you groom? You'd be surprised how calm he will be. I have my dad hold Turbo & Mimi when I groom them bc they will not stay still. I have my dad just pet their head or hold their head & kiss them loll, it's a good distraction. If I need to work on Mimi's face, my dad will hold onto her torso. Turbo will let me work on his head but not clip his body. He was a little matted when he was living w/my aunt & the clipper caught on a mat & I think it hurt him a little & ever since then, he won't let me.

Yup, I have 2 screamers here too, Mimi & Turbo. They act like I'm going to kill them or something!
