Hi!

Just looking for some advice to see if I'm over worrying (as usual)... When cuddling Gus tonight I noticed that his groin area was quite grubby and looked almost a bit gammy (photos don't show much) but when I've been cleaning them out they've been loads wetter than they usually are - I've had to change the puppy pads once a day!

Any ideas would be great - thank you!

Keep an eye on for him developing a UTI (urinary tract infection) over the next days. If it is that, it is very early days still, so it is pretty impossible to say whether you are dealing with one or not at this stage and it also may not be easy to do so for a vet.
 
That's what happened to my girl before her UTI I didn't realize what it was until it happened but her bottom was just dirty and damp then she developed blood in her urine
