Hi. At times I have noticed a very nasty smell by ebd has and I keep him clean. I clean his face 2 x a day as well as his tail pocket and even his butt after he poops. The other day I came home and I could smell this terrible smell. I thought he had pooped or vomited inside and I went around looking all over for where he did whatever he did but could not find feces nor vomit so after a few I got up close to him and I noticed it was his backside area and now know it was his anal glands. I watched a few videos on you tube ( great place to learn) and now went out and bought disposable gloves and K-W jelly. They say the best way is to insert your finger up to about the first knuckle and squeeze the pea sized gland at 4 O clock and 8 O clock and to do it in the bathtub because it can be messy. I have been reluctant to do this before because I am afraid if I start to do it- it is something I will have to continue to do for the rest of his life. My question is should I do it and if I do, will I have to continue to do it? The smell has only happened a few times in his 2 and a half year life. One time in my truck when we were on the way to a pet expo.. Thanks everyone.
