If you notice that your dog is restless, whines, often looks back at his butt, licks over his tail, or rolls on his butt on the carpet, chances are his anal glands are clogged. And it is better to clean them right away, without waiting for inflammation.

Instructions
Step 1
If you've never cleaned your anal glands before, get your dog in the car and go to the vet. He will show you how to properly clean, and in the future you can cope with this task on your own.
Step 2
If you can't go to the vet, do it yourself. The first step is to understand where the anal glands are located. Take the dog, lift its tail up, press it against the back and carefully examine the area near the anus. Imagine that you have a dial in front of you. The position of the numbers 5 and 7 will correspond to the anal glands.
Step 3
Wash your hands thoroughly and take a piece of sterile bandage. As much as possible we take the tail out.
