The anal glands are a pair of exogenous gland in the lower skin mucosa on both sides of the anus, which is found by all meat animals. Its main role is to secrete some irritating odors as its own symbol; it can also secrete the lubricating fluid to help dog lubricate the anus during defecation and avoid constipation. Because the dog’s self -cleaning ability is relatively poor, if you do not squeeze the anal gland for a long time, it will cause excrement residues, accumulate blockage, and emit a very unpleasant odor. In the long run, anal adenitis can be triggered, difficulty in defecation, obstacles to hind limbs, anal ulcers, redness, and pus. Therefore, it is best to squeeze the anal glands regularly to keep the dog’s anus clean.
