EMPTY DOGS GLANDS - SIGNS DOG NEEDS GLANDS EXPRESSED

[@patriciagimay9195]

If you add a little pumpkin into their food they will thank you and a warm face cloth on the glands will help them too to relax the glands and empty themselves everytime themselves.

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Ah thats great information thanks

[@user-wt5if6rx8m]

thank you!

[@harrybatt7462]

Hey Patricia 👋 do you do this to your own doggy pals?

[@shelleyblevins4737]

I never knew dogs needed this and I've had a few large breeds.None if them were scooters. I am soon to acquite a toy poodle so I thought I should educate myself on smaller breeds when I discovered your video.Good to know,thanks!

[@arianitdemaj2531]

so larger dogs dont need this?

[@billclark6787]

I'm going to do it. I was raised by a dad who was a country boy at heart and taught me to do as much home care of animals as possible. I like saving money (our vet did it last time for $32!!!). I've always had medium or larger dogs of the working breeds and I've never had to do it with my dogs. Now my medium german shepherd mix seems to need it as she's gotten older. I'll do it myself. Hell for $32 I might go door-to-door to my neighbors offering to do it for $20.

[@marysoares4377]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@lexiwest2644]

Lol!!!! 😂

[@timothy2935]

If any of my neighbors came by the house offering 20 bucks to take care of that issue I would be stoked

[@deborahdee9995]

I’d be happy to pay someone $20 bucks to take care of that for my Georgi Girl. You can start a business “Anal Glands R Us” 😷🤑

[@AlexxWoodwick]

I would be weirded the fuck out if someone came to my door offering to squeeze my dogs butthole for $ 20 haha

[@natdvill]

My husband and I are able to do it. We have watched your video showing us how. You’re right it smells but so worth it to give our little Jojo some relief! Your dog is so cute!!

[@wonder0987]

Came across your video for the sole purpose of learning how to do this for my dog. So while I'm sure the Vet or Groomer can do this it would be nice to help out my furry little friend without paying a crazy bill.

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Yeh that’s the reason I did it thanks

[@danfinds1386]

Great tips and advice and yes we do teds glands ourselves!

[@Chloe_theMedium]

haha yes we do!

[@wolfvegasRyder]

so happy i stubled across this! Keep up the great work!

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Thank you :) glad you enjoyed it

[@Amakka88]

I like to give my dog a bit of bread, I think it helps with this. He also gets white rice with wet food often. It would have been nice if you could have included information reguarding a common doggy diet to keep fibre up and avoid this problem. Also, do you know any difference in signs between the canine having worms vs requiring expression? Outside of worms being on your glove once you shove a finger up the butt. Judging by these other comments, I bet many would leave this video not even aware of worms.

[@risenshine2783]

love the Bedlington is it ?! yes I would express them myself...thanks for great video

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Yes he is. That’s great it’s easy when you know how :) no problem :)

[@rosalind_skyKim]

Do they show all the symptoms together or is it possible they only show one sign? Cuz my dog does not scoot or chase his tail but smells fishy like once in two months may be, not frequently. Is it normal or does he also needs an expression?

[@jenm5904]

Once they get them expressed, do they always need to be expressed? My pup very rarely scoots across the floor. Maybe 4x a year. But I've heard once the vet expresses them they will need it regularly. Thank you for any help

[@dmo848]

I was under that impression myself. Few weeks back I went to the vet and now my dog is doing it again so I'm guessing Yes

[@dugnonce2377]

How often can i do this?

[@airbornemelody6156]

My husky’s bum has been smelling fishy and smelly so I think he needs expressing- dunno if my family will do it at home but I hope we can take him to the vet soon to check it out

[@danfinds1386]

All great tips and easy to do!

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Thank you muchly

[@lisacurry5134]

Very through video. Thank you. I don't feel any swelling of her glands whatsoever. What else can make her jump and try to lick the area? Starting heat cycle??

[@dmo848]

Same here, I was given some spray to soothe the area and I was told to give children's Benadryl. If it looks sore that's why the dog is licking cause it hurts so they keep licking till it's raw. It is helping

[@maddynavarro77]

Hi? I have a question, does it literally leak in the home?

[@Amakka88]

It's like wiping your bum on the carpet. There will be a streak of poop. It wont be like explosive diarrhea.

[@tatanyajardine9840]

Considering it right now

[@oceanwave9316]

I have tried to do it myself. And watched the video but nothing comes out

[@delrichardson9178]

Can this happen to puppys at 13.5 weeks ?

[@gaarasama1247]

Thanks so much for your help now I know it's little Abel's time to be squeezed. Hope he enjoys ahaba

[@no-bq8hv]

My mini schnauzer has suddenly needed this done frequently. I pay the vet to do it!

[@frankycoronadosfilmtexas8377]

I don't always have time to take them to the vet I'm going to have to do it myself today

[@litespeedway6538]

On dogs dragging their bottoms across the floor I've only heard dog owners say it is a sign of worms.

[@judyh390]

Would they whine too? Would that be a sign?

[@Chloe_theMedium]

They could do if it is really sore and if they are really full. However the more common signs are the smell and the scooting along the floor :)

[@lyounginer5090]

Yes, my dog did.

[@brianaflorea2461]

SOMEONE HELP ME😭😭 MY DOG BOWS DOWN AND HAS THEIR BUTT UP IS THAT A SIGN???

[@dmo848]

No that means your dog wants to play or is trying to be friendly

[@juliehuerta7071]

That’s called a Playbow.

[@rous9556]

Do you know how much Bedlington Terriers pay normally? Like 600-2000e or something?

[@Chloe_theMedium]

It depends on the bedlington terrier. Ours is a show breed bedlington and can be quite lazy but, can be full on but when he has a good walk it gets very tired. The working bedlingtons are a lot more energetic and want to play more. Hope this helps.

[@rous9556]

Everything dogs with Chloe It helped a lot, Thank you so much ^w^

[@Chloe_theMedium]

no problem

[@cnmathias5187]

I do ot at least once a month, my dog hates it.

[@susanwensil6749]

We have the groomer express my dogs glands. Thanks for the video, it was very informative😃

[@Chloe_theMedium]

No problem thanks

[@bcpfinishes2791]

Please, more videos on Ted! If you are possibly considering.

[@mollyoxy]

My dog randomly leaks out a bit anal gland fluid (like once a month). Is this normal? Or do I need to express it myself

[@lisawhiffen6615]

Just watching this and hope she's not going express in her bedroom 🤣

[@Moreeelifeee]

What would a dog do in the wild with no human? The scooting?

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Great question generally this wouldn’t happen because the diet they would be on. We have made our dogs very domesticated

[@nursecj5154]

Thank you youre beautiful!

[@wallacekwan8145]

I was wondering is twitching a sign of the dog needs expressing. I have r a French bull dog and seems like he’s started this twitch but seems to be relieved when I scratch near his bum.

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Yes i imagine it could be but i suppose it depends on the type of twitching if you are worried i would get your vet to check your dog.

[@Cutthecamerasdeadass1899]

New pet owners don't even know about anal glands when they first adopt one...

[@dmo848]

I've had German Shepard my whole life 30 something years and I've never known this until I got a pitbull pup

[@user-wt5if6rx8m]

thanks! your channel is very helpful

[@SAMZIRRA]

The first part of the video looks like you have a headless dog.

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Haha yes it does, that is ted for you! He does it all the time when we are filming we will call it camera shy haha

[@SAMZIRRA]

Everything dogs with Chloe haha nice!

[@Andrea-64]

My dog rubs her bum all the time. The vets have never expressed her anul glands because they've said she doesn't need it done.

[@Martin-mz4jk]

Uhm. Definitely would not be comfortable doing this. To the vet it is. One more sign apparently, their tail is to one side all the time. I thought mine broke her tail but turns out this is a sign her anal glants need looked at.

[@lolly5453]

Thanks for this video - my dog has had his anal glands expressed at the vet a few times, but recently has started to bite around his tail and I am considering attempting to do it myself for the first time. Was wondering if tail biting/itchiness in that area was a sign that they needed to be expressed, and your video has been helpful in confirming this so I’ll probably follow your link and look into doing a bit of bum squeezing 😱 not looking forward to it tho lol!

[@daphne201239]

What causes it? The only way I know about this is from Dirty Jobs show. Haha.

[@aleashavanholland738]

My groomer dose my dogs

[@suratiivey9142]

I take my Bichon to the Vet for the drain.

[@Chloe_theMedium]

yes sometimes it is easier and nicer to take them to vet.

[@stevengraham6842]

Bichon + Bitcoin = drained glands

[@yup442]

My dog smells DISGUSTING

[@timothy2935]

Awwe yeah You're cute The girls kinda cute also

[@patriciabarnes4093]

Umm🤔 I think I may reconsider getting a dog🤢

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Yes it’s not the best :)

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Yes it’s not the best :)

[@tmaxim2651]

Unless they have a medical issue they won’t really need expressing often. I have expressed my dog’s anal glands maybe 3 times and he’s about a year old. It’s not good to express them unless you really need to because it can actually ruin the natural balance that some dogs have. Unfortunately my pup starts rubbing his bum, having a little poo troubles and eventually it really bothers him so I do it myself, usually just using some toilet paper. I have been trained as a groomer though so I’m comfortable with anal gland expression. Never press too hard btw, it could be dangerous for your dog. I recommend doing it while bathing your dog, but of course groomers and vets can usually do it too. This is one of the easier aspects of getting a dog. People say it’s a big responsibility, but you have no idea until you actually get a dog! I pay for my dog, groom him, play with him, train him and walk an hour a day with him, almost entirely on my own. He’s my first dog and I almost gave him up from the initial stress of it. Luckily I chose the right breed and personality for my living situation and in the end he’s really added a lot to my life, even if he’s also taken away a whole lot of freedom!

[@Chloe_theMedium]

Apothegmatic Reality well said :)

[@shayb7502]

I’ve had 4 dogs in my life and none of them ever needed this done
