First clean the golden retriever’s anus with warm water to make the skin softer and relax the golden retriever. Usually in this case, the golden retriever’s anal glands are easier to clean.
To squeeze and clean the anal glands, first hold the base of the golden retriever’s tail with your left hand to expose the anus;
Hold the toilet paper in your right hand and place it directly against the Golden Retriever's anus. Use your right thumb and index finger to press the anal glands at 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock, squeeze inward and then rub outward, and the anal gland fluid will be discharged. . After repeated squeezing several times, the anal gland fluid can be emptied.
Do not use excessive force when squeezing the Golden Retriever’s anal glands to prevent anal gland damage and inflammation. It should be noted in particular that long-term loose stools in Golden Retrievers can easily cause anal gland fluid accumulation and obstruction, so the cleaning cycle of the anal glands should be relatively short.
If your Golden Retriever suffers from anal sacculitis, it can be cured once a week for three consecutive weeks.
