I think it's best if the vet shows you the proper procedure, if done wrong, you can push the contents further up, and this can lead to a serious problem. This is automatically done by some groomers, however many vets believe it's not necessary unless your dog has a problem. Joey outgrew this condition, and hasn't had any problems with it for over 1½ years.

YUP, He definatly does the scooting on his butt thing. My poor lil guy
