There is a good chance their anal glands need to be emptied. They usually they take care of themselves when the dog poops, but sometimes they get blocked up. Most vets and some groomers will do this. You can do this yourself but i wouldnt reccomend it, at least not until you get a lesson from your vet.

It has worms, you are supposed to worm your dog every three months or so depending on what brand you use. to save money on going ot the vet just go to your local supermarket and buy some worming stuff. i find the meaty chews the best cos you dont have tp try and hide it in the dogs food they just chomp it straight down. make sure you read the directions so you know how much to give your dog.

Most likely is that they have an itch down there, but it may be caused by worms in the outer layer of skin, or in the intestinal tract. So if you are of concern, you should get him/her checked out by avet!

I believe its because they are itchy or they have worms, but make sure that they don't have any problems, i.e. rashes, abnormal discharge, etc. If there seems to be a problem with that area, or if you are unsure, take them to a vet to get it checked out.

Could be worms, but not necessarily! My dogs do that sometimes and they don't have worms. Probably anal glands!

Could be worms but also could be that their anal sacks are enlarged and need to be expressed. TZhat is one job best left to your vets. It's a nasty job!!!!

Could be because they just have an ichy butt, or they could also have worms, you should probably have that checked.

They only do that when their anal glands are full
