Yorkie sleeping issue Hi, I'm new to Yorkie Talk. I'm posting on behalf of Kirby our male 5 year old Yorkie. He is 6 pounds and in good health. He regularly sees the vet. He sleeps in my daughter's bed. Maybe 5 or 6 times a year, we will notice a small piece of fecal matter where he sleeps in her bed. This seems to occur while he is asleep because it is not the size of a normal bowel movement. Upon questioning the vet., he said that when Kirby is in a sound sleep, the anal sphincter muscle relaxes - allowing this to occur. He also said that it could be due to passing gas and a little more. Does this make sense? Is anybody else out there familiar with this situation? I should also add that Kirby is wee wee pad trained and very rarely has accidents. Thanks for your help. |
Hmmm..I'm not familiar with that..It makes sense, but I hope someone else on here has some input for you!! |
i found some in my bed from lexi too.. i just think it was poo stuck to her hair on her butt and i didnt notice it. just a very little piece though that came off... it was hard |
We have 4 that sleep with us and that never happens. My guess it was just some fecal matter that was stuck to his coat and then dropped off when he got in bed. |
Regarding Kirby this also happened once when he became very excited when we took him over to a friend who also owned a Yorkie. This friend mentioned that this occurred with his dog - namely a small piece of fecal matter would be eliminated when his dog became overly excited. Thanks for all replys. |
