Thanks so much for this. Our cavapoo is 2 years old now, we'd never done intentional brush training but over the last 6 months he's become so reactive at the groomers that they coulnd't finish the groom for his own safety 😭 I'm so grateful to find this video so I can start doing something about it! We're taking it super slow with one session a day, have been going with that for about a week, getting ready to move to part 2! I think it's going to be a long process to get him happy with the brush, scissors and other grooming tools, especially around his face/the top of his head. We're going to take it one session at a time!

@HowToTrainADreamDog 3 күн бұрын

We are so happy this video has helped you. You are on the right track to keep it nice and slow. Because of his previous experience this might be achingly slow for you, but as long as it's positive for him, you're doing great! You might also do this with a new, very high value treat (moist, smelly ones are usually perfect). That will help him anticipate the training with a positive association because the treat is so tasty. You're doing great! Even if this takes a month or more, it's worth it for a lifetime of positive grooming sessions.

She’s a very mild personality, but when the brush comes out she turns into a snarling devil shark. I now realize i was just doing too much too fast. Thank you for these training tips.

Thank you! My new puppy has a silky coat, which means daily attention, but so far is afraid of the brush and just wants to chew the comb. Luckily, I searched for this video when I've only touched her with comb/brush just enough to see it was no go. I can already see she will love the snuffle mat I had ready for her... except she is not food focussed. This is the big challenge with her, but it's end of the first week and I'm hoping she gets more interested in food. One reason I like this video and the slow progression is that it helps me to not stress that I can't yet start her daily grooming, which I want her to love. She seems highly sensitive in general, so I'm more afraid of putting her off, than her getting matted because grooming hasn't started.

I put too much pressure on getting mats out and I need to put more pressure on making sure he is saying YES instead! I love the idea of using a snuffle mat during training sessions. And I can ask the groomer to go shorter with his haircut so we can avoid those mats a little better. 😊

Gigi, my mini goldendoodle, just turned a year old on August 8th. She does not mind being brushed on her back. She does not like brushing of her ears, legs, tummy, and tail. Also, she tries to bite if we touch her paws. We try to brush her daily, but sometimes we cannot. We usually tag team brushing. One of us holds a yummy bone to chew and the other brushes. We use the Chris Christensen Slicker Brush and Andis Pet Steel Comb which our groomer uses and recommended to us.

Hi- love your helpful videos . My pup is a bichonpoo and about 5 months and getting his first grooming this weekend. He had his first mail clipping about 3 weeks ago and it was rough. Apparently he tried to bite the handler and another handler was present to distract and other trimming. After this service, or coincidentally we noticed a slight change in behaviour when we lift or pick up our dog, and he starts to growl, snarl then bite our hands off and scared me. I’m actually feeling stressed knowing the fact that he will not enjoy this at all. We do brush him with no issues and often touch his paws without any issues, however don’t want to cut his nails. I’ve asked the place how do they handle a nervous or a biter , and they said they’d use either a cone or muzzle. What is your opinion or suggestion. Help!

I had to get a little unconventional with my Shiba since the Pandemic went onto full swing a couple weeks after i got her. Spring was warming up and she was blowing her winter coat. So i took her favorite chew toy (sheep horn) put it on a small pre proof pad and let her munch on it while she was being brushed. When she had enough i let her go play. I let her lay down during the whole process which makes it difficult for me, but that's kind of been our thing since. 🤷

You can use kibble. Try changing the kibble a little bit, either making it cold, warming it up, putting some warm water on it or making it into a mush. Did your vet tell you to limit his treats? Most of the time puppies are not in danger of gaining weight from average treats and training sessions. Older dogs are more at risk of weight gain. But definitely listen to any advice your vet has given. You can also break the treats he's allowed to have into very small pieces so he's still getting a reward for the training.
