| Anal Glands My question is..Is your groomer suppose to check and empty the anal glands? I love my Groomer and my dog does too, but she says this is for a vet to do. Which I have read differently on??What are your thoughts?? |

| My groomer does my dogs but she was a vet tech for years. I would not trust all groomers to do them. If they don't know what they are doing they can injure your dog. |
