He's always a pain in the bum when he's being groomed! He'll panic when I call him over, probably because he thinks I'm going to do something he doesn't like (For instance, when he hurts himself, we call him over to make sure it isn't serious). So he gets all twitchy and tries to dash for his crate.

When he realises it's just grooming, he settles down to enjoy it. Trouble being that he'll stretch out on his side so that I can get his belly, but refuses to turn over so I can do the other side. Tongues As far as he's concerned, his belly is the only thing that needs brushing.

So earlier, I was doing the washing up and had rubber gloves on. He came into the kitchen and I stroked him, forgetting I had gloves on. He went all glassy-eyed and loved it! Laughing As I did it, I noticed a lot of dead undercoat was being released! A lot better than his brush and mit!

Won't substitute proper grooming, of course. Smile Will be used at the beginning and end to get rid of dead hair.

Yeah, I should buy packs of rubber gloves for £2 and sell each glove for £5! Big Grin

Just as long as Dempsey doesn't realise it's chewable. Tongues

thumbs up Nice one
Wet rubber washing up gloves is an old trick on getting pet hair off sofas so I can imagine it will be good for grabbing lose hair
Blue also thinks only his belly needs brushing Laughing

Maybe Dempsey just has a thing for rubber gloves, not the weirdest I've ever heard of. Laughing

rolling on the floor It wouldn't surprise me!

I gave him a proper grooming just now. He loved every minute of it. Although a minute after I started, he flipped straight onto his back so that I could do his belly. Tongues Thankfully, he was so relaxed, he didn't care when I rolled him over to do his sides.
