The laundry and dungeon are has the regular wipes only.

Both mine are all over my house and bed so defintely want them to feel clean at all times.

same here Des..they like to hang out in our bed so i need to wipe them everytime! i wipe their paws too after the come back from daycare/ their walks outside and etc. Also The girls love to sleep next to my face when we are in bed and yes, they put their little tushies next to my face!!! so i have no choice but to wipe..

Yup, I wipe both boobah and gina. That's one thing with having small dogs, their poop and wipes are small. At least my pups' are.

I always use baby wipes on Gus' belly (for urine) Haven't needed it ever on the butt area! YET!!

I have always wiped Otis off after he goes potty and now he knows to stop and let me check him out and wipe him. I buy pampers for sensitive skin baby wipes they are alcohol and fragrance free. It is funny because my hubby don't always wipe him and if he don't Otis will come straight to me and look at his butt then looks back at me and barks, that is how he tells me he wants me to check him out and clean him. I love him soo much, he is too cute. I am so glad that I am not the only one that does this stuff. I have read so much on YT that I thought I might be the only one who does crazy things then I find out that I am not alone, thank you YT members.

I wipe him sometimes. I've thought about doing it more regularly.

Definitely yes, I wipe Momiji's little butt every time, including middle of the night....
She will let me know when she goes pee or poop middle of the night so I have to wipe her butt. (I have tissue on my night stand so I don't have to go to bathroom to get it... I wipe her while I'm half a sleep...)
I use toilet tissue to wipe unless poop stack to her butt then I wash her butt with warm water and little bit of dog shampoo.
I use puppy wipe if her leg hair get wet from pee or when we come home from walk outside.
I think yorkie owners' are very clean neat people so our yorkies are always nice and clean!!!

Until she grew a little, she got a bath every time she pooped! No, I have never, ever had a problem with her skin or hair. I, of course, asked my vet about it and she said if Toto gets dirty, bathe her! [I love that woman!] Today, at 8" tall x 8" long, she still comes to me if she gets wet and backs up and stands for me to wipe her! Yes, I sometimes get odd looks and raised eyebrows! No, I don't care!

Flushable baby wipes work great! We should form the "Shiney Hiney Club"!!!

POOP Pancake!!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!

I use baby wipes too Other wise it will get every where.

miabellaamoure · 01-07-2008, 11:44 AM

I too, use the wipes plus, when Bella goes in for grooming I always ask for a "sanitary" trim so things are nice and tidy back there

Mere_de_Jambo · 01-07-2008, 12:05 PM

Absolutely wipe. He always gets wiped after pee-ing and poo-ing. His feet get wiped anytime he comes in from outside. He is used to it so he always knows what follows after any of these things. Like you said, they are on the bed, couch, lap.....it is just a matter of hygiene.

cheeselover8481 · 01-07-2008, 12:10 PM

I think it's gross not to. I also wipe her feet. I don't know what they walked on and don't want her to track germs in my bed. Ewwww...

Brookef18 · 01-07-2008, 04:43 PM

This is too funny!

xXCJXx · 01-07-2008, 05:14 PM

Not to spoil everyones fun, but don't you think they should clean themselves?

I wouldn't want them to get in the habit of coming to a human everytime they have relieved themselves. Just my 2 cents.
