Hey everyone!
My 10 week old papillon absolutely hates being brushed.. I've tried giving her tons of treats before during and after but she wont even eat them! The second she sees the brush she runs and hides. When I do brush her I brush her very gently and I keep the sessions short - usually only a few seconds - because thats all she'll put up with. As soon as she feels the brush on her she'll wimper and whine. She let's me touch her all over with my hands and her toys... pretty much anything but a brush OR a comb. I've also tried different brushes but that doesn't seem to help either. Please help! I know that grooming is going to be crucial when she grows her long coat. Thanks in advance!
