If the poop is just stuck to the fur I would recommend either soaking it to get it off or if you have a dog clipper (like a groomer uses, not scissors) and clip it off. To soak it, I would take a wet wash cloth and just soak it until you can take a dog comb and comb it out. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
