Anal Glands

I watched that video of the person showing how to express them - she said they were at 5:00 and 7:00? If I were to check to see if there were hard pea-sized lumps, that's where I would, right? Are they on the outside? I don't want to express anything myself, but if I can check before making a vet appointment, that would be great.
 
Sally has only had one episode were her glands really stunk like a cheesy smell :yuk:. It was disgusting and at first I didn't know what it was. I took her the vet and he got a lot of smelly stuff out. Since then I've asked the groomer to empty them every 8 weeks or so but the last time she said she wouldn't empty them as she's showing no signs of needing them doing. She said its not good to do them too often as it can stop them emptying themselves. Does anyone know if this is true or whether she trying to get out of doing it !
 
Great video - but I think I'll still leave it to the experts.:)
I can't believe she didn't have gloves on though.:eek:
