Your pet deserves a smooth, pain-free bowel movement

Cleaning your pet’s anal glands is important to keep your pet comfortable and healthy, avoiding blockage, infections, pain, inflammation and unpleasant odor.

What does the anal gland cleaning service include?

The anal glands of dogs and cats are small glands located around the anus that produce an oily substance that helps lubricate feces during elimination. However, sometimes these glands can become inflamed or infected, causing pain and discomfort for your pet. If not treated properly, these glands can even burst and cause a serious infection. Therefore, it is important that you know how to detect the symptoms of your pet’s blocked or inflamed anal glands, such as excessive licking of the anus or dragging on the floor. If you observe any of these symptoms, it is important that you make an appointment as soon as possible.

Keep your pet healthy with frequent gland cleaning

At My Grooming, our experts use safe and effective techniques to carefully clean your pet’s anal glands and prevent any future problems. This technique involves the manual release of the substance produced by the anal glands, which helps reduce inflammation and discomfort in your pet.

Why is it important to clean the anal glands of our pets?

Pet anal glands are small sacs located on either side of the anus that produce an oily substance used to mark territory and communicate with other animals. However, in some cases, these glands can become clogged, which can cause a number of health problems for your pet. Some reasons why it is important to clean the anal glands of pets are:

  • Infection prevention: When the anal glands are clogged, they can become infected, which can cause pain, swelling, and discomfort in your pet.
  • Avoid Pain: Pets with clogged anal glands may experience painful bowel movements, which can cause them to avoid going to the bathroom and become constipated.
  • Elimination of unpleasant odors: If your pet’s anal glands are clogged, they can release an unpleasant odor that can be difficult to eliminate. Regular cleaning of the anal glands can help reduce odors and keep your pet fresh and clean.
