Grooming Shelties: Undercoat thinning

[@_Ben4810]

We had a rescue sheltie once, truly the most intelligent & loving dog I've ever seen, & she automatically would lay down on her side for brushing without the need for any training or instruction, she just lay there so relaxed & loving the brushing, attention, & all with a big smile on her face also...!

BC Canada!? I was putting money on that being a Southern Michigan/ Northern Ohio accent. If you were walking around my local grocery store, no one would ask boo about your accent or where you're from.

How do you groom the undercoat on your younger dogs?

[@elizarob666]

I'm watching you groom your dog,but it looks really painful. My dog would not lay so still

[@greyfyreshelties260]

It's simply training. The young dog learns to lay quietly and relax. They often actually fall asleep while getting groomed. Done correctly, grooming your sheltie doesn't hurt anymore than brushing your hair or getting your hair cut..

is a dog sedated? why it isn't moving at all? did you really sedate a dog for your own comfort while making this video?

[@greyfyreshelties260]

It's a concept...Called training the dog to lay on it's side.

My sheltie used to do the same, he would lay down like he was at a spa
