How often do you's get your Cav's glands emptied, and how old are they? Have your dogs been done from a young age? And has anyone had their dogs glands removed?
The reason I'm asking all this is Murphy is two and a half, and needs his done every 4/5 weeks. He used to only get it done every 6 months or so, but now even after he has them done he scoots straight away. The vet has raised the question of removing them all together.
I'm not too sure. It doesn't bother me to take him in and have to pay for it every 4/5 weeks, but will Murphy be more comfortable if they are gone?
I asked if it would give Murphy any problems holding it in if he needs the toilet, but the vet said no.
