Is it ok to remove my dogs penis hair???

recently he has been crying because everytime he pee's the pee hardens into like little rocks on his hairs and cause pain, i have to clean it up and don't mind but i'd rather have him comfortable at once because he is always biting the hairs and this makes him mad, so i was wondering if it is safe to cut the hairs off, he is 4 months old and a jack russel terrier here is a picture of the hairs i want to remove :

I would recommend taking it to the groomer to have it done. They will also bathe him, clean his ears and clip his toenails, which should be done every 12 weeks or so. But, if you can and will do all that for him regularly...I would say yes, it is OK. I would recommend you using electric clippers with a trimming/shaving blade... DO NOT use scissors, you have to be careful not to cut off something I think he really wants to keep. %26lt;G%26gt;

lol. I think it's okay to cut the hair since it's bothering him. Just make sure to not pull on the hair so that he could feel it. =)

your dog may have kidney stones or some other type of urinary track infection wrong with it, it is not normal by any means to have the urine turn into crystals.....he needs a vet ASAP. It wouldn't hurt to trim the hair, but its not going to take care of the problem in the long run

yes if it is causing him pain, ask a vet or a groomer to help him. you could do it yourself if you are really careful.

good luck

y ou are a sick person now I know that you already know what to do in this case; but just in case you do not you should simply pick up your phone or someone else phone and call your vet or jut take the dog to the vet and get him looked at and then follow the doctors orders

We do it all the time just for that reason. When you take a dog to the groomer they trim the hair there. All show dogs too. If you can't do it have a groomer do it for you. He may not be crying because of that. He could have a Urinary Track Infection, you may want to have your vet check him out. Take care;~)

Having the urine crystallize on the hair sounds like he may have some type of urinary infection. The hair can be trimmed carefully, but I think that you need to have your pup checked out by a vet first, just to make sure that he does not have something else going on.

The vet may also do the grooming or recommend a groomer for your dog. If you have a really steady hand, and your dog will sit still for you, you can trim the hair yourself, but be very careful.
