But her energy and attitude is great, like nothing is wrong. I don't see worms....anything I should check for? Any ideas why she's not eating?
BTW she has always been a scooter. Vet told us that she is just emptying her glands or has an itchy butt :) but I've noticed it more than usual.

Take the dog to another vet., dragging their butt is a sign of worms, you may not be able to see them.

Your dog's Anal Glands are impacted. Your vet is correct. Just take her to the vet and have them drained. Sometimes the dog needs a little help with that...

Any time an animal, especially a dog, doesn't eat for days, there is a problem. Take her to the vet. Do not wait any longer.

slightly chocolate gained't damage the dogs, till that's amazingly small (teacup chihuahua small). In extra of a 1/2 a bar would develop into undesirable, and in extra of an entire bar you need to probable take your dogs to a veterinarian. The worst which will ensue, notwithstanding, might want to be the farts and the barfs, for lack of a better effective time period.

She may have some anal secretions impacted in the internal end ogf the gland. She may not be eating because of some discomfort. Call the vet to ask him.

Take your puppy dog to a groomer and have them empty her glands. My dogs glands get infected if not emptied on time. When I get him fixed I will probably have them remove the glands (that's what my vet suggested) When my dogs glands get infected he gets where he doesn't feel good. Take your dog to the groomer and see if that doesn't fix it.

Take her to the vet, only the vet is going to be able to diagnose her problem. Her glands may be full and need to be "expressed" again.
She's probably uncomfortable so I think I'd take her.
Good luck.

Definitely sounds like impacted anal glands. Here is a link to info on them.

They may be infected or abcessed. Take him to the vet and have them expressed. He will be much happier.

TAKE HER TO THE VET, girl! It could be just worms, but if she doesent drink or eat this could be very serious!!!!Dogs can dehydrate in just a short time and die.

Three days is too long especially not eating. Take her to the vet.
