    Have you ever wondered why dogs smell each other's behinds when greeting each other? The reason is glands. Dogs have a set of small glands on each side of the anus. They fill with a liquid. That liquid has a unique smell that is distinctive to each dog. Canines use this unique odor to identify each other. It’s just a natural part of them having an amazing nose.

    Unfortunately, these glands don’t express themselves naturally of their liquid all the time. They can get impacted, which can lead to discomfort and even possible infection. Your veterinarian or dog groomer can manually express these anal glands, but it’s also important to keep them functioning properly. Wouldn’t it be great if there were dog vitamins and supplements that could help support these glands?

    Glandex for dogs helps support proper anal gland function. It comes in two forms:

    • Glandex powder for dogs This is available in 2.5 oz., 4 oz. and 5.5 oz. containers. Follow the instructions and sprinkle the correct dose on wet or dry food. The powder form can be used for both dogs and cats.
    • Glandex soft chews for dogs These convenient chews come in 30 count, 60 count and 120 count containers. Simply check the chart on the back of the product and feed your dog the appropriate dose. Most dogs will love the flavor options, including peanut butter, beef liver and pork liver.
