Pembroke & Cardigan Welsh Corgi

Meekosmama · 10-19-2007, 11:03 PM

I think the way these dogs are built, they are predisposed to pee on their front feet

Meeko can lift his leg and still soak his paws, poor guy.

Is he still young? Sometimes they just have to figure out the right angle. It took Shippo a while to figure out what angle to lift his leg at lmfao...

Yes, about 7 months old lol

sophie has never peed on her feet. Sometime I have to pick her up and shake the last turd out of her. She sometimes forgets to squeeze the last one. LOL

I keep my grass mowed at about 3 inches tall. Since Charlie's short little legs get almost totally buried in the grass, I guess the grass blades "shield" him from peeing on his legs. LOL You're all making me wonder if he would pee on his feet if the grass were shorter!

Byron does the same every so often.

I just one of those things that happen...

I have neverr had a Corgi who has urinated on his/her feet. But on a few occasions they might accidently step on their poop.

Usually Peanut will pee on the concrete with all 4 legs on the ground. Sometimes if the area isn’t flat, the stream might run underneath his paws. Peanut doesn’t seem to mind. I just make sure I wipe everything clean before he enters the house.

If he’s on the grass, once in a while, he’ll get the urge to lift up his back leg.

Darwin and Champ do not pee on their feet, they pee on the ground and when they are done, they step in it as they walk away. It's pretty funny

Michael Romanos · 10-29-2007, 01:45 AM

Left to themselves ie not held by a leash, Corgis will almost always skirt or neatlly step over the handiwork of their toilet. Often it is the handler who innocently compels a dog to go in a certain direction.

MyPemCharlie · 10-29-2007, 11:01 AM

...and we all think their feet smell like Frito's. Maybe it's really Frito-scented pee!

Well we have come a complete circle - the answer is to use that dog foot/leg cleaning equipment that I have mentioned on another thread.

Generic baby wipes are good for cleaning feet. Even a damp towel would work. And IMO, they would be better tolerated by a corgi than the foot cleaning equiptment.

Perhaps the foot cleaning cylinder would be too deep for a Corgi's leg anyway?????

If made for the "average" dog, yeah, it probably would. One size doesn't always fit all!

(I like the short legs, they're cuter!)
