I love how they enjoy their showers!
How is Tuff? Is there a chance that doing nothing is an option? Or is infection a serious risk with an opening like he has? Is he in any pain?

~ We have consulted our primary vet and he is looking at options. As for now his bladder comes out and goes back in. If you look closely at the shower video you can see the prolapse, it is slightly out. We think it is dysfunctional, however he gets plenty of fresh water and seems to be doing fine. His appetite and behavior is normal and healthy. What ever it takes we will try and keep him healthy and happy.
