Brushing my puppy
Posted: Wed May 27, 2020 11:53 am
Hi there,
Bella is 8 weeks old and loves it when I brush her back and her belly.
However, she will not let me brush near her genitals, her bum or her chin. I try convincing her with training and praise and I take my time but I'm concern as the hair in that area is now starting to look tangled.
Does anyone have any advice that can help with this. I don't want her to be in pain or for her hair to become matted.
I have tried using sensitive doggy wipes in the area in the hopes if it was cleaner it would be easier to brush. She doesn't mind the wipes but as soon as I use the brush she fusses and won't let me near
Thanks for any advice you can give.
