Two questions from a newbie Cavalier owner!
1. When I try to brush Reuben, (12 weeks) is obviously grabs the brush and comb in his teeth, like he does everything else while he is playing.
Will he always do this while grooming (like my labrador, who ended up growling at the brushes and combs during grooming) or should I try while he is sleepy a tiny bit at a time and get him used to it. Do all puppies start off like this?
2. His hair is pretty wavy/curly. At this age is it likely that his adult coat might come in smoother (how I like it) or is he destined to stay wavy/curly for ever? Some of the hair on his side actually tips back and goes in the opposite direction!
Thanks in advance, any help gratefully received.
