imported_Debbie Posted May 23, 2003 Posted May 23, 2003 Believe me you'll know when your dog has impacted anal glands..... the smell is like rotten tuna and tincans :o very nasty !! My youngest JRT has a problem with that and she had to go have her anal glands expressed at the Vets and believe me she didn't like it a bit !! :oops: And it was really nasty..... YUK !! Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted May 23, 2003 Posted May 23, 2003 Oh man, my sister still cracks up from before... I was watching this grooming show, and they were talking about when you bath your dog, you can clear away the anal debry (sp?)... I've blocked out what she said :lol: but I was like "WHAT?! YOU WANT ME TO DO WHAT?!" and my sister started cracking up, she said the look on my face was priceless :oops: Deffently doesn't sound like a very good thing :o But I hear you can prevent it from feeding your dog the right stuff etc. etc. Quote
