I work at a groomers and we express externally. It's not AS effective but the amount we get out of some dogs is amazing! Jasper only had to have his done once, I held him and my boss expressed, which is how we found out they were slightly impacted. I took him to the vets a week later as he still wasn't right, they were expressed internally and there was only a small amount in there so it's good for keeping full glands at bay. Also itsn't not as invasive and most dogs don't mind having it done. Just need to make sure you give their backside a good wash afterwards to get rid of the rancid smell lol! Ah thank you for clearing that up. (No pun intended hah!) My colleague who works in the groom room told me the lovely procedure they have to do but as it was nearly a year ago I had forgotten what it involved. (Not something I want to remember anyway! lol) |

Grated carrot in his food will help too.  Must it be grated or would a whole carrot count? He has a whole one every day to help clean his teeth in the way which is more fun for him. |

LOL! I would never have even realised that pun!
And yes, it's not pleasant! There's a few dogs that express them randomly when on the table. There's been a few times it's only NARROWLY missed my head (pleasant thought I know!) tend to keep myself well back from that region lol!
Do you work at P@H?
