Hello Everyone,
I am new to these forums and I am glad to be here.

I have an 8 week old Yorkie-Poo (75% Yorkshire 25% toy poodle) and she weighs just under 1 pound. I just got her last week so I am learning every day. When she has a bowel movement, the hair gets sticky and matted on her bottom. She has trouble going to the bathroom when the hair is hard and matted. We trimmed some of the hair and put Vaseline around the area. I can’t be there to put Vaseline on her ever time, is there anything else I could do to prevent it?

Thanks in advance!
