Dog licking his bun hole2007-11-25 3:00:59

My dog has been licking his bun hole, like almost non stop. Sorry really not sure what words to use.

Could it be a sign that he has worms?? and if that's it what kind of worms?

Answers:

The read is a bit gross, but it helps to explain the anal sac/glands that can become full. It also suggests other culprits that might be causing the licking. Honestly, my dog will lick if he has gas..

Get his anal area drained at the ver. It'll work wonders in there!

If he has worms u can tell in his poop.maybe he is just cleaning himself..if he keeps it up call ur local vet they might can u give u more info.

Well if he continous to do it then you should see a vet about it if he rubs his bum on the floor then its worms but if he licks his bum could also be worms i would suggest take him to your vet and ask could be something majorly wrong as well you never know i wouldnt want to take any chances really..

Yes, it could very likely be worms. Not all forms of worms apparent in the feces. It could also be a infected gland in the same area. He needs to be taken to the vet. Good luck.

My dog from 5 years ago used to do this all the time. We took him to the vet and ended up paying the fees for nothing! She was just cleaning herself.

He may need to have his glands drained. Make an appt. for a check up. It's a quick process but will give him much relieve.
