Zesty Paws Anal Gland Scoot Away Bites with VitaFiber Chicken Flavor Dog Chews, 90 count

I waited a month to review this product so that I gave it a fair chance. My rat terrier has SUFFERED with anal gland issues for awhile. We have tried pumpkin, more veggies, etc. and would still end up at the vets or the groomers to get her glands manually expressed. The smell was something I can't even put words to. After reading all of the raving reviews I decided to try this. I'm so glad that I kept going bc I honestly wasn't sure it was working since it took a few weeks BUT I am definitely noticing a difference now. There is still a slight smell every now and again but NOTHING like before. I'm going to keep going with it and maybe in another month it'll be even better.

I already used Glandex for a month and a half, which initially produced larger stools but ultimately didn't fix the problem. I then tried the Scoot Away Bites for over a month, and bought a second month to be certain. I am sorry to say that these didn't fix the anal glad issue either. I am now trying a different kind of dog food with a higher fiber content in hopes that it will fix the problem.

So far these have worked GREAT!!! I have a year old Great Dane who was have some serious anal gland issues every few weeks. For her weight, it is recommended to give three. I’ve just been giving her one a day and it is still working for her! She also has a very sensitive stomach with every other treat type thing she’s ever had but these work great for her plus she loves them!!

When I can get my little scooter to take these for 3-4 consecutive days I do notice less scooting. The challenge is he hates these; both dogs agree they are terrible and won’t come near them. I have to get creative getting these down. I wish Chewy would offer sample size packs that can help me test products without investing $30. I do need a long term solution for the scooting, but this may not be it.

My dog's vet switched him to a new prescription food, but since switching we noticed he was constantly chewing at his rear and we could smell that awful anal gland excretion smell when he did. We started having to express his anal glands every week or so and one was always full, obviously not secreting naturally. We started these treats a couple of weeks ago and have already noted improvement - no chewing and we have not had to manually express his anal glands. He also loves these treats so apparently they are tasty! Happy with this purchase!

We were hoping this product would make a difference, as our malti-poo always “scoots” even though she has her glands regularly expressed at the groomer’s. It is a real problem, as it smells awful in the house, and we fear she will injure herself when she does it outside. We have been giving this to her twice a day, and there’s been no improvement. We’ll keep using it since we bought it, but so far, not so good.

These seem to be working well so far. My poor dog has issues with his anal gland secreting from time to time. Hopefully it will work for the long run; he loves eating the treats, so I use them as a reward each day.

My Maltese who is NOT a picky eater would not touch these. Even tried mixing with her food... no go! Will try different brand. This is second item I’ve bought from this brand. She did not like the other flavor either:(

I could not use this product because my dog sniffed it and left it on the floor, it crumbled easily I put it on her food and then she wouldn't eat. I ended up ordering Glandex peanut butter and she takes them happily.

Beau (3 year old schnauzer mutt) has always been a butt scooter. He doesn’t stink, never scoots anything onto the floor, and seems to poop just fine, but has always, always, dragged his butt on the ground. After about a month of these he has started scooting much less frequently. Hasn’t completely fixed the issue, but definitely heading that direction!
