Today was the first time Digi has allowed me to brush her body, usually I can only brush her ears & the second the brush goes near anywhere past her neck she freaks out & if I ry to keep brushing her she'll scream & pee in fear. Not today though
She let me brush her hips & hind legs with no fighting. She seemed to be enjoying it (held her head funny, as if you were scratching her butt (another thing she wont allow))
I was able to FILL a No-Frills grocery bag full of hair I got from her hips & there is still more wanting to come out, but after 30 mins she had enough of the brush & was bitting at it & trying to get her back away from it, so I stopped & played with her for being such a brave girl
Only took 3yrs to finally brush her
I'm so proud of her! Shes slowly maturing into a normal dog. Sure many things are taking much longer for her to learn/do due to her mental issues, but it's all turning out for the best. Shes not a mental case anymore.. hasn't had a fit/freak out for well over 1.5yrs
I can now also send her fur to the farm so I can finally get my Digi Mitts.. well I need to brush her more, but now its actually possible lol
