| Trailing poop Our (Mine and DJ30) dog Angel seems to have a weird way of pooping. She will initially go in one spot and then kind of inch over or move/drag over to another spot all the while squatting and doing her business. Which leaves a trail or bits of poop. Do others have this problem? Is this normal? How can we curb this "action"? Thanks |

| Tucker does that when he has trouble going. He has been put on lactulose by the vet and it seems to help

| Tressie does it too. I keep picking her up and taking her back to her pad. I have to praise her for starting on the pad tho. what helped alot was to have their pad in another crate close to the door, which was working out fine. but then I thought that was not such a good idea for the fact that it was teaching them it was ok to potty in their crate. I took that crate and put it away. I have to admitt ....I really think pee pad training is harder (for me) than going out side. I had no problem at all with the other 2 training to go out side. so now I know I am the problem. If they can get me trained they got it made!

| I have a potty area in my living room behind a screen and another pad in my bedroom which is where I leave them during the day. Every morning Simon will start on the pad in the living room then run into the bedroom and finish there. I have no idea why but he has always done this. |

| Penny does something like this when her hair is getting too long around her rear. She'll poop, and then walk a few steps and finish. Does your baby need a sanitary grooming? |

| Baby does this too. It's when they're scooting their butt on the ground, then that's a problem. They need they're glads expressed. Baby pees and walks at the same time too!

| Our girl is a squatter for both #1 and #2. I've never seen her drag her butt on the ground, which is a good thing. |
