Well, I took both pups for a well puppy check up that I got complimentary from the AKC for registering. I was really happy with the vet that checked them. It's their second vet visit, first one when I just got them, nothing was noted as abnormal. Well, this time, the vet checked them head to paws.. listened to their heart/lungs for a long time, checked their eyes, teeth, ears, legs, EVERYTHING and it was free! I was pretty impressed, I got to write the AKC and tell them.. anyways, she is really concerned about Aldo's little tail. It is a little screw tail, very very small and the bone twists into his butt. She says I got to really go in there and clean it because if he gets moisture infection or yeast it will be VERY VERY hard to treat since there is no air flow to the area. she also pointed out that it was so small that there is not a whole lot they can crop off if they needed to.. so I;m a little worried about this, I tried cleaning it with baby wipes, I have to push the rectum to the side and really push his butt in to be able to stick the wipe in there.. it hurts him to and he runs from me when I approach him with baby wipes
Have any of your dogs had this problem? I feel so bad for him that I have to do that every day, will he get used to it? I also clean his face,and he hates that too, but at least he doesn't cry
