We recently rescued a three year old male Cockalier. He had to have extensive surgery on his left rear knee. The only concern we have so far is that it seems that because of having surgery on his rear leg, every time he cocks his leg to urinate, he hits his front leg and belly. We are hoping that as his back leg gets stronger, this will be less of a problem. My question, does anyone else have this problem with the male Cockalier? His fur is more like a Cavalier than a Cocker, but should we consider having his belly hair cut short until his back leg gets stronger or this just an issue that we might have to permanently deal with?
