Anal Gland Expressing

Anal Gland Expressing

If your pet is scooting along the ground or you notice a metallic smell coming from their rear, they may have full anal glands—a common issue in smaller breed dogs. Anal glands are used by dogs to mark their territory in the wild, but sometimes they need help emptying. Our team can assist, and we can also recommend dietary adjustments, like adding high-fiber foods such as pumpkin or carrot, to help manage the issue naturally.
