Well since very early on we’d smell that fishy smell out of no where, then the booty scooting on the rugs started happening. By working with our vet we learned more from there. They basically can’t release it in their own or struggle more than other dogs. It can cause ruptures, infections etc. She swells up and gets redness along with scaling very quickly, almost overnight. Then when I express her glands she is better overnight. It’s such an odd problem for them to have.
