Andrea Johnston replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"I don't know if this has been mentioned yet as I have not read all replies. But often scooting the bum across a surface can indicate worms not just blocked anal glands. I don't think anal gland blockage is indicated in such a young pup,…"
Kendra K. Rhoton replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"About the scooting... I would have the vet check his anal glands."
Lynda Kamrath replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"Scooting could be some type of worms, so I would have his stool tested first thing. It could also be some problem with his anal gland. Some dogs have no problem at all with their anal grand and others need the gland to be expressed with…"
Pat and Traveler replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"I haven't had a scooting problem (thank heavens!), but this reminded me of what Trav does if he gets a bit of poo stuck on his behind. He won't move! This has only happened three or four times, but if he's taking care of…"
"I would rather have the floor buckle from the odor neutralizer than urine. My guess is that if you put the neutralizer on and put a fan on it overnight that it won't buckle. "
Christine & Shelby replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"He may need his anal glands expressed. This happened to my Shelby once.... I took her to the vet, they expressed them and it was only a 1 time experience. I would take him in to get checked out."
F, Calla & Luca replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"Laminate seams do buckle a bit with too much moisture too."
annmarie sparks replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"I have laminate flooring and will say out of 3 doodle puppies one constantly peed .....we found out she was a 2 pee one poop walk..and ANYTIME she played every 20min out we'd take her......YOUNG puppies all r different like some toddler potty…"
Karen & Jackdoodle replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"Unfortunately, that's the risk you take. The only alternative is keeping the puppy confined to a different area any time you cannot watch her every second."
"Ya then I am worried about the moisture getting under the laminate and lifting the floor up, it really is a catch 22."
Karen & Jackdoodle replied to Carla and Griffin's discussion Puppy Scooting"I would pour the odor neutralizer on the floor if there is any possibility of the urine having gotten into the seams and/or under the flooring. Dogs' sense of smell is scary-strong! "
"I am worried about the urine saturating throught the laminate as well, thank you for the suggestion, much appreciated. I have moved a piddle pad today to that location and he has piddled on it once and off of it once, so that may be progress,…"
"I am wondering if the urine is getting under the laminate flooring (through the seams) and spreading to the underlayment material. Maybe you need to pour a good amount of the odor neutralizer on the area of the floor and let it seep…"
"The fortunate part about Griffin piddling in the same area is that it is on our laminate floor not carpet and I have been using an odor neutralizer, I guess the other frustrating part is that lots of times he is piddling shortly after he has come…"
