| should i... wipe my dogs bottom? ok, this is odd. Should i be wiping my puppies bottom after she poos? I've been cool with everything up until this point. My mother and sister laughed at me and said man up, of course you should.

| Hmm... well... I'd say wipe it if she's messy for sure!!! But I think they do a pretty good job of cleaning themselves as well. If you feel like you need to get them extra clean.. go for it! My parents and friends already think I'm turning into a crazy dog person, if they saw me running after my dog with baby wipes every time she pooped they'd probably think I've gone off the deep end. But to each their own! hehe. Mia's hair is pretty long and sometimes she'll have problems if her poo isn't solid and she ends up a big nasty mess! That's when her whole back end goes in the tub if I can't get her cleaned up with some wipes. A sanitary cut is always a good idea to prevent this problem!

| I do the same thing, the first time hubby saw me he ask me are you wiping her bottom? and I explained why, and now he does it too, and I don't care what people think if they saw me or not |

| Nope! But, think about....your dog is pretty much a part of the family.....sits on you furniture, on you, etc.....don't you wipe?

| People think I am crazy too, but Bobby is all over me, hubby, furniture so I usually wipe his bottom. Most the time its clean, but there are some times where its dirty. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Joey has a really clean poo most of the time, no dingleberries, so to speak, so no wiping here, unless he's having a problem.

| Have you tried oiling that area.....Primrose oil, Almond oil....some kind of oil....I usually don't have the problem with my full coated show dogs, since they are usually in wraps......and until their furnishings are long enough to wrap, oil or part the hair on each side and band...but, I still wipe
