Beagle Scent Problem
My lovely male beagle as a problem with the 2 scent glands located on the
sides of his bottom mouth, they are small, very putrid, and offensive. It must be irritating to the dog because he is always rubbing it on his front paws, thus irritating it further. I assume it's infected because it's constantly draining out infected liquid. Anyone with experience in this area? Thanks in advance. BTW: do female beagles also get this problem? William |

Beagle Scent Problem
The problem can apply to both sexes. We had a Basset with the same
problem and eventually had the glands removed. That's s delicate process and should be done by a vet who has experience in such things.

Stevey spoke these words of wisdom in
: The problem can apply to both sexes. We had a Basset with the same problem and eventually had the glands removed. That's s delicate process and should be done by a vet who has experience in such things. In the mouth, those wouldn't be scent glands. they would be abscesses. And they would be very putrid. Because the dog is in trouble and needs a vet. |
