This probably sounds really daft, but.... Tilly seems to have a problem with the fur around her lady bits.... She tries to lick herself clean, but doesn't really manage it.... It is now very caked up and yucky. Would it be appropriate to give her a trim downstairs?
I can't believe I'm asking this, but I don't want to interfere with her own cleaning regime

Oh yes, its fine, I do mine regularly, and, having had a not very flexible Westie for many years, I can categorically state, that sometimes it is vital.

Jazz can get a little caked down there too as she is a curly girl - so a gentle trim with blunt ended scissors. Pixie a scruffy stays immaculate
I laughed at bids description 'shallot' I call the girls bits their 'coffee beans'
Well each to their own

Cannot remember how old she is... If she has yet to have a season it is possible for their 'shallot' to be a bit of an 'innie' so that if they lie upside down and hAve recently wee 'd the urine can collect in the little dip at the base. If so perhaps you need to help keep her clean and dry! Someone did once post a photo on here to show us what they meant.
