Anal Glands in Dogs (Inflamed)

Many of us, especially those with smaller dog breeds, will have seen their dog dragging its bottom on the ground or continually licking the area. This is usually the first sign that the anal glands on either side of the dog’s anus are full and not emptying during the normal process of having a poo. If left this can cause a minor infection or even an abscess.

Tree Barks Powder helps keep your pet’s tummy naturally comfortable and stools normal with this blend of complementary digestive herbs renowned for their digestive health properties work together to provide effective digestive support, for comfortable tummies and normal stools. With Slippery elm bark - contains mucilage, a sticky substance that helps maintain good bowel regularity and stool consistency, Marshmallow root - another powerful mucilaginous herb that coats the gut, soothing and assisting gut transit and White poplar bark - helps to keep tummies comfortable, thanks to its soothing properties.

It’s important that the diet contains enough roughage but also that the motions are not too soft so that the glands clear properly when they go to the toilet. If your dog shows signs of having this problem, give the daily dosage of Garlic & Fenugreek Tablets for their weight to help support any minor infection that may be present. If the problem persists or worsens consult your veterinary surgeon so that he can clear the glands manually.
