Little Girls With White Back Legs
« on: September 02, 2004, 09:25:23 PM »
:unsure:   I have never ever had this with a dog before, and i have grown up with girls with white back legs all my life (party colour cavalier king charles spaniels).  It is not a bad problem, but a little embarrassing.  When Storm goes toilet she manages to get some on her legs.  This makes the feathering on the inside and back on her legs appear an unsightly yellow colour.  I have been bathing her with a gentle medicated puppy shampoo twice a week to get rid of this tinge to the hair, as i do not wish it to become a permanent stain, and think it looks nasty.  She is not clipped, and I do not wish to clip her, as I love the long silky coat she is developing (one of the reasons i chose the breed was for the coat).  I just wondered whether anyone here may know of anything i can do to reduce the staining, or if there is anything i can use to get this stained hair back to white.  I am also concerned about making her skin sensitive from this frequent bathing of her back legs, and any advice on how to limit the chances of this happening would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all for your replies.  

Lynseyloo thank you so much for that link.  I had not read that post, when I posted this, sorry.  It is excellent, and has so many ideas that I can try out, so thank you for bringing it to my attention  :D .

Shaz, thank you so much for that suggestion.  I will look up the website and get some.  

Many Thanks,

sportsmonki
