Answer
Sometimes you just have to do what seems like abuse to them.  Speak softly to him, tell him he is a good dog.  Maybe hold him in your lap.  When you are done, take him for a walk.  I try to do that after cutting toe nails, and other procedure you have to do and the dogs see as abuse.  

My Pepper came to me at 16 weeks with bout ear and eye infections.  It was awful the first 10 days, I was abusing her several times every day.
