I keep Tibbe's hair trimmed very closely in his perianal and peripenial areas. As dogs age and their stool becomes more solid, you usually have far less problems with BM bits collecting on their butts but I check and clean those areas and his eyes daily just to prevent any collection, mess or odor. Oddly, Tibbe also collects bits of food at the edges of his lips!!! He has a short but full little moustache right across his muzzle but there's no food in that - just right at the edges of each side of his mouth! Have to clean that area daily also! He'd be a mess without his mommie right behind him with a wet washcloth!
