I don't have a chi yet but thankfully I worked at a doggie salon for a while and am... ahem, very familiar with the procedure. It isn't so bad once you get into the swing of it. Just aim your chi so when it squirts, and it WILL, it doesn't hit YOU but instead hits a shower wall or something. The dogs are *so* relieved when it's done!
Hey, it's easier than changing diapers. For me anyway! :P
Yes and make sure you have lots of tissue too -sometimes it can squirt out so do it in an area that is clear of items around the dog and is easily cleaned.what a subject eh- but has to be done if needed.
It is great information, and completely natural and not disgusting. It is a fact of life. When Madison and Rylie need their anal glands squeezed, I do it myself.
Busters burst on the first time his was empacted. I barely noticed he had a problem and it was just about too late. That was last August and he has only had to have them emptied once after that in September. He hasn't had a problem since thankfully.
But with him the signs were scooting his butt and licking the area ALOT. Paying tons of attention to the area.
Chucky also used to rub his bum on the carpet when he went outside to poop. The vet then emptied his anal glands and we haven't had a problem ever since!
What the heck is a bloomin stool ??
