Our groomer does it while she's showering them. Because it is fecal matter, it stinks. It's like goop coming out of their butts. Pretty gross!

Biddy gets hers done whenever she goes to the groomer too. Tucker has never has his done - I think he might be too little?? He's 4 1/2 months and 2 1/2 pounds...
