Guest Anonymous Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 My German Shep(4yo)started licking his rear end yesterday and he has been at it through the night and also this morning. What is this all about? Anyone know? Much appreciated! O'Nuallain-NY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 His anal glands may need depressing. You can do this by soaking him in a warm tub or using a warm cloth or taking him to your vet. One word of caution - stay clear, the odor is horrific.

Guest Anonymous Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 My 4 yr old shep does the same thing on occation. The anal glands do need expressing - I had the vet do it twice in the past few months. Your vet can show you how also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
