I brush Tino everyday. Just make sure that you are using some kind of a conditioning spray before you brush, otherwise you will break their hair.

I must be a bad mommy because I don't. It is to painful (on me) to try and brush Lily. She chews on me and the brush. She just hates it and I wonder if she'll ever like it.

I brush Chewy daily with a comb only and that seems to take care of it. I find that if I put him up on a desk he is a little scared and will stay still for the brushing. Takes about 2 minutes.

Mine both hated being brushed when they were little. I chose a soft cat brush I had, they didn't mind it as much. It didn't do that much good except to get them used to it. Now I brush them with a slicker brush, Zowie will stand and shiver; Bronx has to be held down. Keep trying, my guys are over 1 now.

Rosi does the same to me, i just do it every day, today she allmost liked it, well sort of lol

Maggie doesn't mind the comb at all. I use the comb on her face, legs and tummy. I only use the slicker brush on her back. If I try to use the slicker brush on places that I use the comb, then forget it---she's out of here.

I guess Otis and I are the oddballs here. His hair is so short, he never gets brushed in the summertime. I seriously think he gets his teeth brushed more than his hair.

I brush Dudley's hair every day, twice a day as it grows out. I have a hair brush that I used to use on my long hair and he doesn't mind it at all. He , in fact, loves it. When I pick up the brush he comes running to me. It has nylon bristles and a rounded shape. I think I bought it at Avon, maybe, of course years ago.

yes brushing is a must... i usually try to brush tiny when he is already occupied chewing on something so he wont try to eat his brush i cant wait till his hair is long

Honey's_Mom · 06-07-2005, 11:35 AM

Yes, we still brush/comb as well - thank God for the puppy cut! keeping her hair long was a nightmare for both of us...now if we can just get the potty thing down!
