Because you shouldn't be trying to brush or comb her on your lap! All three of mine would never sit still on my lap while I tried to comb or brush them. I set up a little grooming area on top of my washer and do all their grooming there. Keep all your supplies in a basket so they are within easy reach and put Chloe up high on the wash machine (or whatever place you think might work best). Work quickly and quietly and offer small treats. Hope this help to get your little girl into a good routine. Good grooming practice is a must when you have a Yorkie that needs daily brushing and combing.
