Most likely anal glands: what are you feeding the dog on? If the dog's stools aren't really firm then the glands don't get emptied when the dog craps, which is what should happen. Dogs on raw diets that get plenty of bones don't generally suffer from this problem.

 

Worm the dog if you aren't sure if it needs worming or not: better safe etc. Dog's turds should be hard but not impossible to pass: too much bone will make them crap white marbles, sometimes painful to pass: happy medium is about 60% meat etc and 40% bone. I've never had a problem with anal glands since my dogs have been on a raw diet.

anal gland try giveing bones in diet this hardens stools & some times releases glands

Try this ! rubber gloves on hands,lube fore finger, slip fore finger up dogs arse , anal glands are at 5 & 7 o'clock when looking at dog from behind.

Gently work gland between fore finger and thumb, TAKE CARE not to get the fluid on you as it stinks !!

 

Good Luck
