That is very true! If you don't know how to do it..you can hurt them..and if you try and they get stressed out..you can make it worse for them so when they do go to the vet to get it done they are stressed out for the tech's. Trust me a stressed out dog is hard to deal with when you are trying to stick fingers in the bum!
