Do you know?? ➡️A**l gland rupture in dogs and what you need to know

A**l glands can become blocked or infected, leading to painful swelling. If left untreated, they may rupture, causing an open wound near your dog’s rear.

⚠️ Watch out for these signs:
• Scooting
• Strong, foul odor
• Excessive licking of the rear
• Swelling or redness

Early care can prevent discomfort and more serious complications. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s best to seek help right away.

❣️ We're here to help keep your pet comfortable! Reach out to us if you have any concerns.

NOTE: If they rupture, you'll see a painful, discharging wound near the a**s that requires immediate veterinary care, cleaning, and medication to prevent further infection.

Grooming is a skill - but it’s also an act of care.

A great groom isn’t only about tools. A calm, steady environment makes a great impact. The boundaries we set aren’t just about protecting our peace — they’re about protecting your dog’s experience.

Because at the end of the day, this is what this job about is all about - making dogs feel safe, comfortable, and happy.

🐾 Noticing your dog scooting or smelling “off”? It could be their a**l glands🐾

As dogs get older, gain weight, or become less active, they may not empty their a**l glands as easily on their own. When that happens, a quick manual expression can help keep them comfortable.

Common signs your pet may need it:
- 👉 Scooting their bottom on the floor
- 👉 A strong, foul odor from the backside (not gas or p**p)
- 👉 Excessively licking or biting at their butt

It might be a few minutes of discomfort, but it can bring long-lasting relief and help prevent bigger problems.

💗 We’re here to help your pets feel their best!

Nail maintenance isn’t just about vanity; it’s about orthopedic health. 🦴

When nails are too long:
* They push back into the paw, causing discomfort.
* They increase the risk of painful snags or tears.
* They shift weight onto the back of the paw, straining the legs.

If the nails touch the ground while they’re standing, they’re too long! A monthly trim keeps the “quick” short and the tail wagging!

Pro tip: Use treats/praises to make “paw-dicure” day a positive experience. 🦴✨
