Thanks for the replies. After puppy was done, I had to wash her bottom off anyway in the bathroom sink and it dissolved very quickly. Hopefully this doesn't happen again, but if it does, I think the warm sitz-bath approach works best. It softens the outside up anyway so that everything dissolves and leaves the way clear for them to finish the job.
You're right CH33, it is really scary at the time. I've never had a dog either and didn't know that matted butt hair could get in the way. |
