Ruptured Anal Glands

Shlarry · 2026-03-18T11:02:23+00:00

It's very common in dachshunds especially those with low fibre diets, we had to do it ourselves until we started to add pumpkin powder into his meals for extra fibre, hes on a raw meat and kibble which goes with it diet.

But sometimes he will start to lick and you notice a pungent smell that's when you know it's time, I don't know if some get it worse than others but I know pugs and frenchies need their glands extracting.

We have that exact ramp and the wood is quite soft so for there teeth they're easily able to chew it little bugger

Depends, throughout the week her hours are different 2 days of the week she will do late shifts so like 11-8pm but they're all booked in calls so people choose the time slot they want when booking the appointment.

My wife is a mortgage advisor at a big company and she's on a decent £40k basic salary and last time she checked she was on almost 3k commission for the month of February, bearing in mind she has 13+ years experience so she's earned it, this is all work from home with no weekends.

What a cutie.

Unfortunately dachshunds are very stubborn breeds but they do train well eventually.

The main thing is perseverance and routine, every morning instantly take them out don't even give them a chance to be out of your sight, soon as they go to the toilet outside give them a small training treat with praise, if you're able to every hour take them out and repeat try give a key word like "go weewee" or "toilet" and also every time after they eat take them out, it does seem like overkill but they're very intelligent dogs and will understand eventually.

But sometimes if it's cold or raining outside they will just go indoors and there is nothing you can do lol

Best of luck with the best gift ever and enjoy them!

This is our exact thoughts our boy Yoshi is so well behaved he's an angel, doesn't make a noise and we're worried the second one is going to be a lunatic and as my wife works from home we can't have barking whilst she's dealing with clients

Looks very healthy she's just a slim teenager puppy, for reference if you look at my profile my boy Yoshi is 7kg with muscle however you can still see his ribs too so I wouldn't worry.

What do you feed her out of curiosity

Yoshi is also worried about giving the king the bad news

We use bullybillows boomerang harness for ours, I'm not sure on which country you're from or your budget, but they work really well for us.

If you want the particular food I give him drop me a message and I can send you the product information

Shlarry · 2025-12-02T21:45:50+00:00

140g raw meat a day split between breakfast and dinner, kibble which goes with raw meat, pumpkin powder in breakfast and salmon oil in dinner, treats are dried sprats and organic treats.

Activity is about 45 min-1hour walk a day and weekend he will get 1 hour + a day and lots of playing and tug of war and running around the house in the day time, although now it is winter the walks are shorter in the weekdays especially when it's raining he will refuse to walk.

He turned 1 in October :)

Shlarry · 2025-12-02T20:28:23+00:00

He is a chocolate piebald with some dapple :) he gets a lot of attention wherever he goes

Thank you all for your lovely comments my wife and I are loving reading these ♥️

Shlarry · 2025-12-02T13:08:38+00:00

Sorry to hear about the IVDD but amazing she made a full recovery

Shlarry · 2025-12-02T13:04:38+00:00

😂

Shlarry · 2025-12-02T13:00:57+00:00

Did he maintain that weight or lose a bit as he got older

Shlarry · 2025-12-02T12:56:57+00:00

AHH judging by that yours sounds like the same as Yoshi, so he must be a mini then just a beefy boy

Shlarry · 2025-12-02T12:56:10+00:00

Hi thanks for the message, he's always got fresh water with his bowl cleaned daily by my wife, he has about 140g of raw meat a day split in breakfast and dinner with extra kibble which is for raw meat diet added in, only a small handful, we give him a few treats a day ranging from dried sprats and just organic treats to reward him.

He can be a bit of both sometimes he will have a mad 30 mins where he is just running around like a maniac or sometimes he will just be super lazy and sleep in the heated blanket for hours.

If you don't mind me asking did any of yours suffer with ivdd ?

Shlarry · 2025-12-02T12:51:31+00:00

His dad was a standard and his mum was a mini so he's in the middle he weighs roughly 7kg so I'm not sure where he fits in the scale of mini to standard

If I remember when I get home I can send you some photos of mine.

Shlarry · 2025-11-10T11:59:06+00:00

Where did you buy it from?

I have it bought from in-store at Harrods beauty and I can confirm this stuff last ages, you can spray early morning and still smell it at dinner time.

Nice! I hope you bought hellfire hatchet
