My husband and I actually shaved their bottoms with some clippers and it looks like that has helped out alot because it was getting stuck to their hair....I'm feeding them baby cereal, baby dog milk and wet dog food mixed in, but I have noticed they hardly ever drink the water we have set out for them....is there anything else I can put out there so they will drink?
And what kind of fruit/vegetable material do I put in their food?

If the hair near their anus is long it can catch some of the stool and harden

also ...if you are feeding your pup hard food make sure they are getting plenty of water
you might even want to put in some fruit or vegetable material in their food to soften their stool
I came home one time to find one of my pups had pooped in his crate and it had become impacted all around his rear end
probably because he was trying to get it off and it inflamed his whole rear |
