Q: Do you do Anal Glands and what are they?
A: Yes. By request (external only, you will need to see your vet if an internal expression is needed)
Anal Glands are glands on either side of the rectum that fill with fluid. When a dog goes to the bathroom these glands should express themselves (This is a territory marking thing) many dogs, especially larger breeds can excrete their own glands themselves while others need it done for them. This fluid can become infected or impacted if not released. You may see your dog chew at his backend or doing the butt scoot. This is usually a sign that they may need to be done
Q: Can I stay and watch?
