Blimey Katty. Thats dedication

Thanks for sharing Katty!...

Ah me! you have to
keep your pets healthy

*** thinks "Guinea Pigs are so much more civilised" ***

Well anything that cleans itself

Dogs lick their own, thankfully

Hahahahaha Lowon

we bathed the dog and trimed his bum at the weekend.   To avoid the messy bum monday morning blues (my week is so off to a bad start if it includes having to don a latex glove and stick the dog in the bath... facing away from me!)...  hubby has given him what we have christened the "monk special".

Twill be a while before we have a clinker problem.   Though the dog keeps looking behind him... especially when its windy.  

I think he feels a draft!

So short

bald around the ring!

Looks like the top of a monks head!

Is his and his breed fault....  they get crappy bums!!  

He wants to be grateful hubby has the patiences to sit and trim.   If it were me it would be done with nose hair clippers!

Get shut and get some fish in a tank No ass wiping there.  

happy to wipe the ass of those I love

(so long as its my dog....  suppose I would the kids.. if I had to.   would have to draw the line at the hubby though)

PMSL poor little mite, love Mr Ditty for more than his noodles now

noodles & bottom trimming....

its a hell of a CV!

Well I love noodles, and I have got two dogs, so he could prove useful

I've got a long haired GSD and I dont trim his bum area He never has any problems with 'spillage' (for want of a better word) either

One of my labradors has anal gland problems and can get smelly fur, maybe Mr Ditty is good at emptying them too

lol... no Mr Ditty wouldn't do the anal gland thing!

Karma...  its something about Cairns...  we've had 4 and they are all prone to clinkers...  

...mind you... the eternal search for the perfect place for a poo  often goes on so long that they end up desperate and doing it either with a bramble bush clung to their undercarriage... or.. on three legs!!!

that's like one of my labs, the yellow one, she spins round like a top finding the place, then squats, then spins again, it goes on and on, not happy when it's tipping down and blowing a gale

Sooooooo many responses for this thread.  Firstly, ditty, the monk special  (We've had to wash dirty dog butt before, but never trimmed it).

Real, yes you might not have to wipe a fishes ass, but they swim around with long strings of poo hanging out their bums

Lowon, our girl dog gets the blocked anal glands problem, SMELLY!

Hamsters clean their own bums

I used to have an Old English Sheepdog...'bum duty' was a nightmare

One of my cats sometimes gets a hard bit of poo stuck to her bum.  

I have to make it moist with a tissue then pull it off.....tis a bit yuk  but she struggles to nip it if I don't give her a hand!

Hamsters are self-cleaning

Shave then and put tippex around so you can see when theyre dirty

Deman I used to date a guy that came at me like that when moving in for a kiss, needless to say the dating didn't last very long

Cinds, Kaytee & Lacey ...........   

Thank you for making me feel my dogs mucky botty is not uncommon!

Feels like he's the only one sometimes... when walking him.. if  when emerging from the woods there is a real nightmare going on back there, and then we bump into another dog & owner...   is so embarrassing... the other dog goes straight for a sniff... I am trying to manoeuvre my dog, by the lead, so that he is facing the other owner at all times....   I would be over the moon if, just once, one of their dogs had made a mess of himself.

No need for the Tippex... I can tell when my dog's bum needs cleaning... by his paranoid behaviour...    he sits down whenever I go near him...  trying to look casual.. but failing.



Also... he runs under my daughters bed whenever he hears the shower going... or see's a latex glove or pair of scissors!

There's a law for that.

And I'd come down heavy  

Omigod - but did his breath smell of sunflower seeds?

pmsl!

And thats why I don't have animals.

 aww bless!

Hooray! Not!..,yet another furry bum cleaning episode for little gurl Cleo,Man she was honking!. I had to clip a lot of fur from her bum and tail...despite  a good bathing/wash of her nether regions..sigh.

My niece stated(her pet by the way!)  She has no tail left!...no says I. her tail is intact just the fur from it has gone!.

Oh God!..there are just some things in life one doesn't need to know!!.........

(I have been dying to use that pic! )

In other pet bottom related news....    AJ's monk cut is working a treat.... unless he decides to do it with one back leg up in the air....   and do it all down the other leg!!!    

Always on a bliddy MONDAY morning as well!

perhaps a warning is now due for folks thinking about buying cute little baby bunnies for a pet for Christmas or even later on at Easter time.They have needs that are very specific to them,they have complicated digestive systems,they are a demanding animal.They can grow into grumpy kicking .biting adults weighing up to 6/7/8  kilos depending on the breed.Most do not like being "Cuddled/handled etc"...Think on!

Despite that,I love my Rio and Cleo.

DPT! I looked back six pages for this!.  HOLY NOT DUP tHREADTASTIC!

I thought this was going to be about kangaroo bums.  I think I'm having IACGMOOH withdrawal symptoms.
