| To the long haired yorkie owners... Hats off to you because I couldn't do it. Miley's fur smells horrible after she pees and she just had a bath! I think it's because the pee is sitting in her fur! I can't take the smell. She's definitely getting another bath.

| Has Miley's UTI cleared up? My boys are in full coat and they do not smell like urine. When they go crazy leg lifting to mark on their walks, I do give them a quick body wash.

Here's a picture of her that I just took 5 seconds ago so you can see her coat. Oh and her coat gets so sticky feeling. Well not literally sticky but like there's something in it, urine, and she literally just had a bath 2 days ago. She hates baths and I don't want to have to keep giving them to her but she smells so bad

| Miley is adorable sleeping, and she has grown a lot of coat already! Maybe the mommies of the girl doggies can advise you better than I can. Does she have hair on her underside than can be trimmed? Or it getting on her outer leg hair and little rear end?

| Thank you! Yes her hair grows extremely fast! I was thinking she needed a trim too. Here's her under side. When she pees literally all if the hair under here gets wet. I'm not exaggerating either lol I even asked if dogs sweated at one point because it was that bad.

YT 1000 Club Member | I make Pee and Poop channels. I have a Oster Grooming Kit, which I've only used once, but, the Clippers and other items individually come in handy. I clip/relieve the area (a slot) where Poop can drop away from them without touching their Hair, and clip under their Tails a short ways (1/2") where that hair is away from the fecal material. About the same thing (mainly for Becca/Female) where the hair on the inside of her legs is "shorter", and doesn't get wet as much. Also keep paws clipped short around toes and heal, letting longer hair cover it. Really shortens the drying time, when they get them soiled for numerous reasons.

| Two of my 3 girls have a long coat, and I don't have this problem at all, and they don't stink. They all go to the groomer every week for their bath.

| I don't see a lot of hair surrounding her girlie parts to "hold" the pee. I'm not sure why this is happening. Mandie's hair is kept as long as it will grow so far. I trim her hair up around that area but she still has more hair than Miley, I think. I wonder if this is just the UTI causing the smell...?

| It has to be the UTI causing the smell. My boy is 15 weeks and has more hair than yours and he doesn't smell. I gave him a bath 3 days ago and he still smells like coconut mmmmm ...

| She is so cute. I love her coat very shiny and silky Pixie needs a weekly bath. I usually notice her fried chicken toes start to kick in and I know its time for a bath. lol
