You can imagine that because of this, I don't get to do as good of a job as I'd like. Well yesterday, I tried something new. My husband was at work and I was laying in bed watching Dancing with the Stars. I decided to hide Twiggy's brush and comb under a pillow and invite her up on the bed with me. She's not allowed there all the time, just a special treat so she was very excited. Once she got comfy, I started to groom her and... SHE WAS PERFECT! She just let me do it and looked like she enjoyed it. I even got to do her paws and legs which she usually hates the most. I brushed her and brushed her for almost two hours and she was an angel! I don't know if I just caught her in a good mood or if we've had a breakthrough! |

Sounds Wooooonderful!!!! |
That is what I do with Sami, Evenings are best because she wants to cuddle either on the bed or couch, but I can get the brush and comb her real good. Lucky 9 and on I am a tv watcher. |
I have an old quilt that they lay on for grooming. It's soft, comfortable and helps with the clean up.
Congrats! |
Either way - congratulations! It's so rewarding when they finally allow you to brush them! |
Congrats! |
Another win for the uprights!! Sheepies are smart but not as smart as we are!! |
I'm going to try this too and see if it works! |
Good for you - sounds like it was quite a treat for her! |
