Thanks for advice will be at vets next Thursday so hopefully will get it sorted then

That's so strange. Here we deworm puppies and then they go on a monthly preventative for heartworms and for intestinal parasites. To answer your question, dragging the bum on the floor could be the glands, worms, or just irritation from a bowel movement. My dogs will do this from time to time. A warm bath can help if it is irritated or dry or even if the glands are a little irritated. But definitely have your vet examine him. Good luck
