Bella in for emergency sanitary trim Evidently, the last time we took Bella in to the groomer, they forgot to do the sanitary trim :mad:. After Bella pottied this morning on her potty pad, she was trembling, had her tail held tightly down, and she looked miserable and ashamed. We praised her and gave her a treat because she pottied in the right place, but we still knew something was wrong. She wouldn't lift up her tail. We gently pried up her tail, and there was a dingleberry matted into her fur. I put on nylon gloves and tried to pull it lose, but it smeared and got further ground into her fur. We ended up having to give her a special bath (we just gave her a bath last weekend). She was much happier afterward. We're taking her in to the vet this afternoon for a sanitary trim. The next time we take her to her regular groomer, we're going to tell them what happened and ask for a discount on her next grooming to pay for the vet's sanitary trim. I was impressed with Bella being able to tell us that something was wrong--she's a smart girl. Lesson learned: Check your dog over thoroughly at the groomer to make sure they didn't miss something as obvious as a sanitary trim. |
I have to trim/shave butts in between grooming. Mostly its just an issue with Callie. She will run inside and hide behind me if she gets a dingle berry. Her hair grows so darn fast its crazy. My newest girl has the same kinda hair so I imagine it might happen to her too. |

Yep we call it the potty patrol -- she will run in and hide behind me and I know what the problem is. She is so ashamed and I think uncomfortable when it happens! |

Cody acts like something is biting his butt and he's running trying to get away from it lol, it's really funny. I tell him come to momma, momma fixes for you, he comes, I clean him and the world is good again. These pups are so cute and silly. |
Rylee will run around, dragging her bottom and Monroe will just sit and look at me with sad, panicked eyes until I get it off. I do their sanitary trimming myself; but since they're full-coated the little danglers happen a couple times a week (staying on the leg hair normally). Normally, they carry it a few steps and it falls (making pick-up quite a search sometimes... especially in the dark haha). Oh, the joys of long haired babies! |
dingleberries is the cutest term for something so gross! lol :D Scottie is super cute when he poops and it's stuck in his long hair. He'll stay in the poop-squatting position and look at me with his HELP-ME mom look until I pick it off. Casie on the other hand is like...OH GOODIE. It's treat time and will turn around quickly to gobble it up. :( |
