The link below is the brand we use. I used to have terrible problems with Molly, Dougall and Dotty. Every four weeks or so we had full and sometimes compacted glands.

I now have them checked every 8 weeks (gradually decreased the visits) or so and it is not 100% perfect everytime but I would estimate there is an 80% improvement for all three.

We started with 2 teaspoons twice per day (that is how we feed them) We have now cut that to one teaspoon twice per day..

If it helps, I am more than happy to send a packet to anyone (foc) to try.

Hello, I'm new - having picked up my little girl - Blenheim cav (Maisie) on Sunday

She was scooting so went to the vets on Monday & her anal glands full. Yesterday, back at the vet as still scooting & licking & she was an infection.

Now on antibiotics :-(

I've got oat bran & will be adding immediately, as vet suggested just bran, but I felt that was a bit harsh.

Bit of a thread hijack, but I'm looking for some pointers on good food for her ?

Thanks !

Hi,
My Leo has had anal glands probems for long time, he's 5 and ahalf now. The oatbran works well for him. I also give him chopped up veg with his evening meal. Green beans and brocholi are good.
His dry food is called "Healthly Paws". Lots of people recommend Burns food.
Good luck, hope Maisie feels better soon.
