Long ways from an expert here, but have you tried putting him in the blocking chute and washing him? That's a nice safe way to do something that is pleasant for them, and keeps the handler from getting smacked around. It seems to go a long ways toward teaching ours that we aren't worth getting all worked up over.  They're all different though, that's for sure.
