Do you guys also have this problem or what can I do?
Thanks. . .

When my boy was growing coat to be shown I use to make 2 pony tails, 1 on each side in the area where it was getting wet from him hiking his leg. Then it got long enough to be wrapped. I do have a tiny girl that had a long coat also and when she would squat to pee her hair would drag through the pee. If she peed a lot the pad would not absorb fast enough and again drag through the pee, same with her...pony tails on each side. It looks pretty cute really, top knot on top and pony tail on each side. Also trimming the potty area helps.
