I'm glad you are going back for a recheck If there are continued concern you might consider changing food. For now pumpkin for add fiber won't hurt and might be a good idea. It's cheap and mine all love it. What I did was add about a tablespoon and a little warm water to their kibble to make a gravy. With Bogey it took 2 rounds of antibiotics and vet visits every 2 weeks for several months to get him back on track. I finally started to express his glands myself and he is back to working order now. What the vet explained to me is that if the glands are impacted and are not emptying properly they could form scar tissue so you need to work to get them back on track. Please check back and let us know how things go at her check
