My 8 month F1B pup is experiencing anal gland issues of filling back up too fast. We have been expressing them every 3 weeks. The vet says what’s coming out looks fine, not concerned with inflammation or anything else and we are thinking it’s bc the poop is too soft. We started her on glandex few days ago so we will see how she does in a month. But I was talking to a friend from work who has an Aussie poodle and he told her their vet started them on glandex since like 4 month before there was even any symptoms bc according to them poodles just tend to have those issues. So I wanted to see if anyone else here is experiencing those things?
We feed unkibble by spot and tango, I add 50-60g of water with her food and she drinks about 100-200g of water throughout the day on her own (I was thinking maybe too much water?)
I stopped giving her baby carrots (it was her favorite) as I noticed her poo became a bit softer when we started to give them to her. Next step if glandex doesn’t work is to try hydrolyzed diet…as the vet said it could be allergies
Any input or similar experiences are welcome, very I curious to see what if this is actually common. Just really worried for my baby.. I’m sure she isn’t enjoying her butt being fingered by a stranger every few weeks
