I didn't know until recently that there are a couple of different ways to express anal glands. Externally and internally. I tried going the external route, but within a couple of weeks, the problem was back. I asked my vet to show me how to internally express the glands and they obliged. I was nervous the first time, but now that I did it (with an already soaped up dog in a self doggie wash) I am relieved that it is not as scary/icky/demeaning as I thought it would be. I guess it helps that my dogs are large to giant breed. Not sure I could express a Yorkie.
Glances "boot the scoot" really helped my dog have firmer stools and get her anal glands working, it has pumpkin and pumpkinseeds and peanut butter and they're chewable bites that she loves.....
Nice video except for the glaring error at the end where you said "In consultation with your veterinarian who knows your dog the best" Many pets have suffered more than they need to because of this arrogant assertion that "vets know best". Just remember one thing, when it comes to noticing changes in the demeanour of your dog, often the only warning they give you, a caring master knows his/her dog better than any vet on the planet and never allow them to tell you otherwise. If they do not take you seriously just find a competent vet who does.
What's so convoluted? She didn't gloss over anything. You were given enough information, so you wouldn't go down a rabbit hole. she's intelligent and thorough. 👍 You should appreciate a caring pet owner. I think someone needs a ego check.
another eat pumpkin or anal gland expression video, please! Is that all any of you vets ever suggest? Pumpkin doesn't eliminate the problem, and expression doesn't address the root problem and may itself be problematic.

TOTALLY agree as they are working for the pharma industry anyway and are TOTALLY answerable to them
@@veganvocalist4782 That's why the better choice is a hoistic veterinarian, those who are not beholden to Big Pharma.

So what is the "root problem" if it's not more fiber needed in their diet?
