Let's talk about sacs baby...

On today's podcast Dr. Robert and Dr. Sam tackle a stinky topic, anal glands. Anal glands (or anal sacs) are two small pouches located on either side of your dog or cat's anus at approximately the four o'clock and eight o'clock positions. The walls of the sac are lined with a large number of sebaceous (sweat) glands that produce a foul-smelling fluid. It is fairly common to see diseases associated with anal sacs in our pets.
