Long Hair and Bathroom Mishaps Hi Our 4 month old Yorkie is just a absolute Joy....dont have any complaints with him.....he is very easy going....doesn't bark much.....hardly ever whines when we put him in his play area for the night......He was a breeze to Potty Train and he is very social with other Dogs and People.....and he Plays by himself very well....he loves his Little Toys and Chew Sticks.....he is Perfect.....the only thing we seem to have a problem with is when he goes to use the bathroom his Hair is starting to get tangled little Poop particles and he sometimes Pees on his hair.....again he is only 4 months i didnt realize his Hair would grow so fast.....i want to get him a nice neat puppy cut but my wife wants to keep his Hair Growing Long....so since she gets what she wants lol how do we keep him from using the bathroom on himself......and also he starting to smell.....even after we bath him shortly after he will smell of pee.....how do we fix this problem........i have pics of him in my Picture Album on my profile if you want to see him.......thanks for your Responses |
Your little guy is absolutely adorable and does have quite the coat! I keep my 2 boys in full coat. Max has never had a problem with poop, but Teddy required help his first 2 years. I don't think he was squatting as well, and he was always in a hurry. :D I very carefully trim around their backsides. Pee: keeping the underside shaved helps, the belly and inner legs. My boys are leg lifters outdoors, so after a lot of marking I usually end up giving them a body wash. They have "pee strings," a little hair left on the penis to direct urine downward that we clean daily. |
Congratulations too on everything going so well! Your little guy sounds like a sweetheart. |
Maybe a compromise of keeping his underside short and I definitely suggest trimming the hair around his booty lol. I was cleaning Chewie so much I finally trimmed and it made a world of difference. |
Every dog is different. I tried all that Maximo does and Toto was still a mess. We also gave him washes after each bath. Still a stinky boy. We ended up giving him a shave on his body, faded to long paws, and kept his head and beard long. Still has the yorkie look when he wears a shirt but much easier to take care of. Your pup is such a cutie!! |
I usually just clipped the hair around her little bootie. I hate dinkelberrires and sence Miss Duchess sleeps in the bed with me and is allowed on all of the furniture, her butt must be kept clean at all times. |
