Papillon Dog (confirmed introduction)
The term "dog anal glands" is unfamiliar to many people who are new to raising pets. We often hear people say that their dogs like to rub their butts. The owners are also very embarrassed when encountering this strange situation. , it’s unbelievable, but I am helpless, so I will teach you how to express the anal glands of your dog.
Do this before bathing your dog every time: Be careful that your head is not too close to the anal glands.
First, lift the dog’s tail forward so that the anus is beyond it.
Second, place your fingers at 4:8 o'clock next to the dog's anus and squeeze.
Some dogs will spit out a yellowish-brown smelly stuff, and some dogs will only have a little bit of stuff, which is very smelly! Dogs who often eat meat need to be squeezed even more! !
It turns out that regular squeezing and cleaning of the dog’s anal glands is very important, not just to eliminate body odor in the dog. If the dog’s anal glands are not squeezed regularly, it can also cause anal gland inflammation.
The technique must pay attention to: from the inside to the outside, from light to heavy.
Remember, when squeezing, it is best to cover the anus with a tissue or cotton to prevent smelly water from splashing on the body.
If the glands have been blocked for a period of time, the secretion will be squeezed out like toothpaste rather than spurted out, often just by gently squeezing them. If the dog's anal gland is not easy to squeeze, another method is needed, which is to place the index finger and thumb slightly behind the gland and gently squeeze outward.
The normal permeate is light yellowish brown, with a concentration ranging from watery to paste, and is accompanied by a rancid smell. If there is pus and blood in the secretion, it means it has been infected and you should see a doctor as soon as possible. If you can feel the accumulation but cannot squeeze it out, it means that the anal gland has been blocked and must be dealt with as soon as possible and seek medical attention. Otherwise it will swell.
In this situation, the dog will lick its anus and urinate on the ground. If it is severe, it will hurt. Because of the pain, the dog will run or chase its tail or lick or bite the base of the tail without stopping, and eventually an abscess will develop. At this time, the dog appears listless, stops eating or is constipated.
Regularly check the fluid sacs in the anus. How often you clean them depends on the frequency of knots in each dog. Some once in the first month, while some have no knots in February or March, and some have no knots at all. No liquidation required. Small breed dogs are more likely to get clogged than large dogs, probably because they eat softer and more food than large dogs, and thus develop clogging.Raw materials that are more brittle and hard.
Suggestion: Generally, dogs take a bath once every 7 to 10 days. Just squeeze the dog once every time he bathes. If the anal glands are serious, try to eat less meat.
