| i just read on the internet that it could be a problem with the anal gland? maybe go to the vets/groomers to get it expressed? good luck with that let us know how you get on

| Mine does this only if she gets "some" stuck to her butt if her hair is too long. Then I have to wipe her butt I have heard that it could have something to do with anal glands.

| Yup, dingle berries for sure! Holly did it every time she went until I shaved around the area, now no more scooting. Vet said no worms and no problems with anal glands.

| My little Bailey has to have her anal glands "expressed" a couple times a year, my groomer does it. I was shocked when I saw what came out. Maggie doesn't have that problem, only the occasional "dingle berry". LOL I always wipe their bottoms with a warm wipe after they go potty. |

| Mine does it even when she doesnt have anything stuck back there.... Her anal gland seems fine but i dont take her to a groomer so shes never had it expressed. If you keep the hair under the tail trimmed down, check for a lump on the tooshie. mine has a slight bump but the vet said it was fine. |
