His little anal glands (which are on either side of his anus inside) are probably full. Higgins had this as a pup and has had to have the vet empty them twice. I know when they are bothering him because he "scoots" on his little butt across the carpet. The vet said they can make pooping uncomfortable.
Some groomers express the glands as part of their service (mine doesn't), but all vet will do it. Take about 1 minute and is not costly at all.
