Why do some dogs grow hair from the end of the penis leaving it stained in urine when they go to the toilet? I presume it can't be healthy to leave it there and that it increases the risk of infection? Is it okay to just trim it back?

are you sure its growing on it and not arround?

Trim it back when I groom male dogs I also clip away the hair in front so that they dont tend to wee on themselves and make themselves smelly

Thanks Tashi! Just wanted to make sure before I trim it off Jayjay, Milo has never had that problem!

Just make sure that you only cut the hair mind

Haha I'll try!

basically hold the end of his penis in between your fingers and then snip the hair holding the scissors against your fingers (hope that makes sense) it is much the safest way of doing it.
