Rocky's scooting what does this mean? :confused::confused:What does it mean when your dog scoots his behind on the rug? He did this last night first time I saw this, rubbing his behind on rug?? What should I do?:confused: |
Did you check him for dingleberries? If none, he may need his anal glands expressed. |
for mine, it usually means he needs his glands expressed. As a matter of fact just happened last week. |
A vet or your groomer needs to express his anal glands. It doesn't cost much, usually around $10 at the vet. At the groomer, it should be included with the grooming. |
how often do you need to have this done? |

Thanks for the info That makes sense since he hasn't been grommed since August didn't know about anal glands I will ask my groomer::animal36 |
Scooting Yorkie Make sure your Yorkie has a lot of dry dog food in his diet. Bowel movements from dry dog food pass with a better consistency than the ones from a diet of moist or canned food. My Yorkie did that once, after eating table food for a couple of days. I put him back on his diet of Blue Buffalo (for small dogs), and the problem cleared up in a day or two. |

make sure your groomer does it from the inside of the rectum, and not the outside.... |
