Really? That is really good to know. He's certain had full anals before without acting the way he's been acting but he could just be reacting differently now to that problem, especially on the heels of his recent problems. You would think his vets would have checked that as every other single time I take him in, they
always check his anals & express them about every 3rd visit or so. Well, I will start to check those form now on when he's funky in any way, even if he isn't scooting or biting at his rear at the time. That's good to know other dogs get hangdog when their anals are full.
He just ate & went back to sleep but roused right away to growl at something only he heard - that is more like it!
