Hi, Beth!
Both of my boys are tiny and I go to the vet every 4or 5 weeks to have it done. Its far cheaper than an emergency and the vet always gives them the "pnce over" and always catches things that might be brewing! For me, its worth it!

It still cost me almost $400.00 dollars, but knowing she is going to be okay is the best news. I guess I will need to learn to express her glands from now on so this doesn't happen.. Just going to be hard to do I think on both Smidgen and Chassis cause they are so small. Smidge in just about 3 1/2 lbs, and Chassis is 2 1/2 lbs. Have you had to do this to Pixie ?

She doesn't have Perianal Fistula. She had a infected anal gland. The vet lanced it and flushed it out and stiched her up. She isn't very happy about having to wear the E-collar. Thank you everyone for your prayers.. Beth & Smidgen
