Donating YT 500 Club Member | Goodness, I don't really know what that could be, unless it is possibly anal glands infected? Sounds like you need to find a vet and soon! Hopefully someone here might have other ideas????

| it could be his anal sack... they fill up if they aren't emptied every day (when they poop) and since you said his poop was soft... that could be the problem... has his poop been soft for a few days??? it takes a hard firm poop to empty the glads..w hen they are not emptied.. each day they get fuller and the liquid inside gets thicker.. thus making it harder to push out... i'd get him to an emergency vet ASAP to get them emptied before they burst.. then you have a serious problem on your hands!! good luck.. let me know how it goes. |

| It may be different from your pup. My old pup was spayed when I first acquired her (she was about 10.5 years old) because they found infection in her uterus. Her anus area was swollen and I could smell unpleasant odor. I remember when she had infection in her pancreas, her lower abdomen was swollen also. Could it be an infection in prostate or some sort? But your pup is so young.. |
