<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">Anals do get infected. Sometimes the treatment of choice, if the infection recurs, is removal of the anal glands themselves.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">You will be warned that sometimes bowel incontinence is an unwanted side effect but please,please if surgery is suggested don't hesitate. I worked for a Vet hospital for over 20yrs and in that time I saw dozens of these anal gland surgeries and never heard of one single dog having a problem afterwards. There are no guarantees of course but the surgery is worth not having your dog uncomfortable so much of the time, and in the end (no pun intended) you'll spend less money.</div>
