| Sounds like this little one has been passed around too often. I would wait awhile until you both get to know each other and he trusts you before I tried any grooming on him except giving a bath and combing. Let him get use to you touching him and I would do that daily. When he's more comfortable I would then try to groom him. Good luck with him. Poor baby just needs some time to adjust. |

| I think that maybe your best bet is the groomers. They will no what way to hold him to avoid a nip. And maybe he will get used to it over time. Good Luck.

| Two years? How long is his coat? I am sure you could find a groomer that would be able to "handle" him, I hope.

| hair cut for a yorkie I had a Maltese like that and he had to have a muzzel for the groomer and the Vet. It worked and he was not stressed out by it.

| my little guy got to the point where he wouldn't let me trim him i too worried about how he would be going back to a groomer it had been more than a year i had to try...he was looking bad he was great and now looks adorable, again sometimes they are better with others they know how to push our buttons
