Trimming the Hair Around a Dog's Anus
Corgi

  Long-haired dogs easily get feces stuck to the hair around their anus. If ignored, bacteria will breed and cause diseases. However, washing the area every time after defecation is too troublesome, so it is best to trim the hair around the anus short to prevent fecal contamination.
  1. Preparation before Trimming
  Before trimming, first wash the hair stained with dirt using shampoo and loosen the hardened hair knots caused by dirt. Identify the areas that need trimming and those that don’t. To ensure the dog's safety, use small, sharp, and easy-to-use scissors for trimming.
  2. Trimming the Hair Around the Anus Short
  Lift the dog's tail and secure its body. Use small scissors to cut off the hair around the anus, trimming in a circular shape centered on the anus with a 2-3 cm radius. To prevent the dog from moving, speak gently during the care.
  3. Precautions for Trimming
  The skin around the anus is very soft and easily injured. Absolutely do not trim carelessly before confirming the anus’s position, or it may cause serious harm to your beloved dog. Therefore, confirming the exact location of the anus is very important.
