Scooting like that can also be an indication of worms, also it can happen if his bum is irritated from diarrhea.
Your groomer should be able to express his anal glands though.
I can tell you from experience, after doing MANY dogs, SMALL and LARGE (ick!), at my old grooming job, I have never seen any of them show any sign of discomfort. Just confusion..."Why are you touching my butt?!!?"... then disgust after sniffing it "OMG what did you do! that smells awful!". Most dogs dont like you being around their private areas, dont blame them though.
I must admit its pretty funny to see the look on their face and how it changes.
