Help from all the long hair dog owenrs. - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Okay my little girl Mia has l long hair but I TRY to keep her rear end cut so she does not get any poopy on her. Gross I know...bear with me.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to cut that area so it would look okay but she would not get anything on her hair anymore. I have it trimmed up now but she still gets yucky there sometimes. Thats! Pics would be great - I know I am asking for rear end shots - ha, ha - what has happened to me????

LOL I don't have any pictures but I found trimming a SMALL area works wonders - too much trimming and your yorkie will have the DREADED BABOON BUTT !

I use the WAHL trimmers and it's swipe swipe and I'm done - Chanel actually LOVES it when I trim her booty - she just plants those feet a mile apart and says...HAVE AT IT MOM

You know my 2 have short hair, but I wanted to bump this up for you, Caren (to return the favor, of course

)!!!!!!!!

I haven't trimmed that area yet, we are still getting know each other (lol) but plan on doing it with scissors. I do the maltese and my husband helps me. So for now, Mr. Toby is getting a booty wash when there is a mess.

Villette, I always look forward to your remarks . . .now I got my morning chuckle fix

Well Annika has that same problem . . whenever she poops, something always gets left behind

and I always have to clean her booty. Tiger has hair in his booty but I never have a problem with him . .why is that?

Anyway, I got the wahl trimmer at Walmart but I feel they are just way too big and not the right size for my furbabies. Where is the best place to buy smaller sizes such as what you have?

Get one for mustaches and beards only.They are smaller.

I also use a small Wahl clipper and shave all four of mine, plus their little bellies. No more "cling-ons" for my gang!!

I use to use a mustache shaver, but hubby wasn't thrilled when he found out I used his....LOLOL

Do you also do the ears? I've read that you should use a #40 or #30 blade to do the ears but when I go to Walmart and look on the package, it does not tell you the blade number. I haven't done his ears yet except for the very top edges with scissors....but I know I need to get goin on the ears so they stay nice and perky. I found a clipper on the J&B wholesale web site and for $50 I can get a clipper with a #40 detachable blade. I am so confused about what to get. I do ALL my on grooming for both the maltese and still learning on the Yorkie. You have a product code as I noticed Walmart had several and do did target when I looked at clippers today. HELP
