Oh my gosh, how scary for you! I'm so glad he is okay!
Can I recommend that you get him on a very high quality food? The reason I say this is because usually - dogs only have anal gland problems if 1) the diet is contains an allergen or too many fillers or 2) there is something structurally wrong down there. Was the vet able to confirm that his little area is okay down there - or was it structurally different?
If you put him on a really good diet that enables a nice, firm poo - you may never have to get his glands emptied (hopefully). It's usually the chronic, mushy poos that cause anal gland filling and issues.
What was he eating when this happened and/or now?
Did you actually "see" the poo that caused this rupture? Bc I wonder too if there was something in there that may have pierced the gland - like a little piece of stick or something?
