Discussions & Information on Grooming / Re: Lucy HATES to be brushed

Normally when she starts to get fussy I have my husband help me hold her and keep her still and calm because I don't want her to learn that when she behaves that way I will stop brushing her but it would be nice I could just brush her on my own.  I like the idea of keeping the brush with me and just getting her used to it like that! Thanks for the great advice!

I massage her and pet her a lot and she really likes it but as soon as I put that brush on her she's outta there!

I bought some yummy peanut buttery dog treats today and I'm going to give the brush and treat method a try!

Thanks for all the great advice, I feel like if I give a couple of them consistent effort I should be good to go!

thank you!  I hadn't thought about a special "brushing only" treat.  I normally give her a rawhide or something to keep her busy while I attempt to brush her but I will be buying some special yummies tomorrow! 

Thanks bunches!

She's beautiful.  How blessed to have had her in your life for so long.  I'm very sorry for your loss.

Discussions & Information on Grooming / Lucy HATES to be brushed
« on: February 09, 2007, 04:22:47 pm »
Ever since we first brought her home I've tried to brush her and she has ALWAYS hated it.  I've tried several different types of brushes (including the furminator which I LOOOVE - especially for my shed-monster cat)and never apply that much pressure just trying to get her used to the concept but she freaks out every time.  She becomes a completely different dog - snapping at the brush and at my hands. She will normally let me do anything I want to her and is completely sweet - even if she doesn't like it she just wiggles away. I don't believe I am hurting her because the brush doesn't appear to be pulling the hair and the brush doesn't ever touch her skin.  Advice, pleeeeeeeease :)

I heart Fumble big time.  Lucy has a teensy widdle crush on him, I must say!

Is there an certain age a pup should reach before getting them a pack?  Lucy is 7 months and I was wanting to get her a pack but I know newfs can't cart or pull until they are 2ish does this apply for backpacks too?  Thanks!

Goodness!  I'm glad it's not just me!  Not that Lucy has been marking the house (thank heavens!) but she's been such a stinker this week.  She's driving me crazy.  She won't leave my 2 cats alone...she just goes from one to another and keeps chasing them.  She was doing so well too, and now it's back to square one!  argh.

Thanks everyone!  I love the picture of her with the broccoli too.  Apparently the broccoli fell out of my shopping bag when I was bringing the groceries from the garage and she snatched a crown of it and ran around the backyard like she'd found the best thing ever.  When I was trying to take the pictures of her, everytime I'd get close she'd run away because she did not want to share her broccoli!! silly girl, like I'd want drooly broccoli - no way!
