I've been practicing a routine with Chevy, so that he continues to behave during grooming. After I groom him, he gets a treat. After his morning walk, and at night, he gets wiped down, hair brushed, and his teeth brushed. It's only been about 2 weeks or so, and now he runs to the bathroom after being released from his harness, and waits for me to begin. As soon as I finish and place him on the floor, he runs to the kitchen where his treats are, so he is beginning to learn if I let her do this, I get a treat. He doesn't sit perfectly still when getting his face wiped though, but we're still practicing. This is just something that works for me, but may help.
