Foul stinky rear

[Lisabear123]

Thank you all...I will do whatever I need to for her. I'm just tired n a bit brain dead today so please forgive me..

OK..I'm going shopping in a bit for this issue .. would someone please give me a list of what I need to buy, please..

...sigh...doesn't seem so, but it could be worse. I need more wipes,not sure what to keep wiping her with..wipes, warm wash cloth, witch hazel, combination? I'm going to buy the Braggs acv today..would putting some of that on a warm water wash cloth help?

Yes it could. Vinegar is a natural cleaner and PH balancer, as well as inhibits yeast growth. And it neutralizes odors too.

Good Grief... I need the link to the video of how to clean the tail pocket?!! And speaking of which... someone should put a video of using a bulb syringe to put powder up there!!! That would be a HOOT!!!

Could it possibly be her anal glands? That is one awful smell!

That is what I'm thinking tbh. It just smells horrid! Lol. .I'm taking her to the vet today to be sure nothing has developed.

Anal glands come out of the rectum, reeks of fish butt....if this is above its probably the tail pocket.

Ok..we are back to defcon 1 ..lol I took her to her vet..I love this new vet! He looked, showed me exactly where her tail pocket is - which he said she really doesn't have one but showed me each side of her tail and where what little she id have was. He said I was doing a good job keeping it clean. The brown stuff was her anal gland gunk.why it was under her tail tho I've no idea. He said the glands did appear full so he expressed them. He showed me how to do it if I ever wanted or needed to do it in the future as well. They washed her butt and sprayed some stuff and there is no more foul smell. Thank goodness it wasn't anything more. The vet was also so happy to see her eyes open and that the surgery was successful. He didn't charge me a dime. He said today was no charge cos we have been through a bunch n what he did took no time at all. Mommy can sleep tonite!
