anal

We first noticed it yesterday, Wally had some blood near his rectum… after we got a better look we noticed that the blood was coming from a spot near his rectum so I'm assuming that it is his anal gland. I called my vet, and since she was off yesterday we decided to bring him in this morning...

Murphy has had this smell on his back for the past 3 weeks. It is truly an indescribable smell. I thought it might be his anal glands but it's not. Washed him, it went away and then it would come back. We took him to play today and one of the dog trainers smelled and said it could be...

I have been reading up on anal sac issues because Macon has been having problems. One of the articles I read said to add a powdered fiber, like benefiber to their diet. It said that the problem can be because with quality foods there is less poo and it can be the reason for the problem. Has...

Hello Everyone! My name is Ashley. I am hoping to get some advice from some well-seasoned bully owners regarding my Dozer's tail pocket. Dozer is 6 years old. I adopted him almost exactly (a little more than) one year ago. When I adopted him, he had a pretty bad ear infection and I believe an...

Ever since Stella & Chewy's had the recall, it's been madness at my place. Some of you may know that I'm very anal about what I want to feed my boys. We've been through Fromm, Stella & Chewy's Raw, Royal Canine HP (rx food) for skin issues, then back to S & C, and now on Canidae because of the...

Well, WB went to the vet today for his semi-anual comprehensive exam. He also got his bordatella shot and anal glands expressed again. But first, they weighed him and he registered 69 lbs :w00t:. He's not fat! It's loose skin! Denial. But he is extremely buff :evil:. We've been feeding...

Does this have to be done often, think it's definitely a vet visit haha

For Anal Gland issues? Someone on FB said it works. I've never heard of it, but would try almost anything to help Wellie stop releasing on my furniture.

i noticed chumleys behind smelling metallically this morning, his poos are usually very soft formed so I don't know if this would allow for the glands to empty as I read they usually clear after a well formed stool , maybe I need to lay of the cook up of chicken breast and veg for a day or so...
