I know what you mean. My baby does good with bathe time but brushing him is a disaster. I have since we had him shaved which broke my heart, I take it one step at a time. I give him treats, do it in the same place, and the same time. I also have him go to the groomers. I can't help you with a groomer I'm from Maine but I'm sure someone will. I am making small progress with the brushing and believe me when they get matted there is no turning back.
Advice I have gotten so far:
Brush them before you wet the hair or it will matt more.
Don't brush hair dry put some leave in conditioner first.
I would start with small steps. First just dip feet in and praise and reward, next day a little more and a little more. Maybe just before bed or something. I brush my dog the same time everynight and slow we are making progress. I love your name that is cool.
Keep me posted |
