My 2 year old Ricki Racer decided she would hiss and glare at me when I start to brush her.
I started hissing back and making faces back at her.
She lets me brush her now.


She plays fetch, incessantly with pipe cleaners that are spring like .cheap toy
Wind a pipe cleaner around a pencil. Tuck the pointy ends in so they aren't sharp and pokey. I toss them, she can jump and catch them in air..or hockey pucks them all over the house.
