Possible anal sac removal
My 8 year old cocker spaniel seems to have chronic problems with her anal sacs plugging up and yesterday in the Vet's office, surgical removal of them was suggested as a possible option.
I have been lucky and not had the pleasure, but I have been told that hemorrhoid surgery in a human is terrible and I sort of associate that with what they are suggesting for Dolly. Not sure I want to put her through a painful operation.
Has anyone had this surgery performed on their dog, and if so would you do it again to another dog if necessary? I would like to learn all the pros and cons of having this done.
Thanks,
George
