You may see this behavior come and go. I was not worried after I talked to the vet. Good luck, hope this helps.

This is true you do their anal gland once and you always have to do it afterwords. My bailey has IBS and she is on a strick diet but still gets alot of soft stool and for us it is a need to get it done. It gets expensive after a while. $40 each time @ the vet. I am to scared to do it myself and not take everything out and it will get infected.
