It's happened a few times within the last two months that awful smell shows up out of no where! Tonight it was when he was sleeping on me. He's on a grain free diet filtered water etc He shows no sign of discomfort, I cleaned his bottom really well after I smelled what had happened. Is this...

Please help me! I have a 4 1/2 year old bulldog, Otis. He has had issues with anal glands for years. We changed his food to Orijen with fiber one cereal to help thicken up his stools. We have seemed to get that under control. I had no idea that he had a deep tail pocket! My husband googled it...

Hello All, Rex turned 4 in February. Around that same time, I took him to a new groomer. She claimed to express his anal glands externally. Shortly thereafter, Rex began spinning on his butt and rubbing up against furniture. I took him to our vet who stated it was very difficult, if not...

Hey all! Long time, and back with a question. I'm looking to drain my bullies anal glands personally (probably said nobody ever.) I've got gloves, papertowels, and ready to do it in the tub before a bath. Seems pretty straightforward, my vet just cups the glands in the back and squeezes. Does...

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 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...
