| Yep. Shave it off and use baby wipes. (I have my groomer give Bernie a trim in that area every few weeks)

| I use a little Wahl Peanut trimmer and just shave it all off. I do a width just a little wider than the trimmer. Be careful not to go directly on the opening but all around it. I also trim the tail up a bit so the hair is not so long it gets in the way.
