Question Itchy Bum!

i dont know what is causing Glen to have an itchy bum! He's been wormed twice since we got him, he's 12weeks on Friday. He still drags his bum on floor after doing the toilet, he's not constipated either. Any ideas

sounds like it could be his anal glands,
even though he is still young it still possible that they are blocked,
take him to your vets and they will be able to check and empty them if need be,

Re: Itchy Bum!

is the wormer from the vet? sometimes the over counter stuff just dosnt do the trick, it could also as mnetioned be anal glands, or if he still has just a little bit of poo stuck to his bum that could cause this reaction.

id say it sound more like he needs his anal glands emptying.Pop him to the vets he/she will do it for you and or show you how to do.
I do my cavs myself as they get it/drag their bottom sometimes.
