Iā€™m just curious, can bulldogs get hemorrhoids? Has anyone had any experience with hemorrhoids and if so, what did they look like? how long did they take to go away? Thank you so much in advance.

Bulldogs can get impacted anal glands, which can be painful and pus filled. They can show as "hemorroids," as they would show out, or can even burst out a hole next to the anus. If that happens, they probably need an antibiotic, and a local application also. Some dogs never have trouble with impaction,as their glands clear with evacuation, and some have trouble.more fiber helps if they have such a problem

Thank you for the reply. I took her to the vet and they never mentioned impacted anal glands. Here is a picture of what it looks like now, is that what impacted anal glands look like? They mentioned possible strain injury but never impacted anal glands.
