I will try this tomorrow. It's bath day, so we will see.
We don't express their anal glands. Never have. My vet actually told me they prefer to allow it naturally unless for some reason dogs are unable to, but she has found no reason to suggest neither of them have issues in this area?
Also, if it was an anal glands issue, wouldn't it be always, not just after bath time?
