Awful odor

Question
This is totally gross but we have to find an answer. Our 3 year old female
bulldog has an awful odor. It is not coming from her tail socket and I don't
believe it's gas. The smell is very musky and the dischage can leave marks
on rugs and her bed. She rocks on her rump a lot too  Could she possibly
have a yeast infection?  Thanks for your help.

Answer

English bullie boy
Hi Whitney - Bullies have anal sac troubles and also have spaces near the tail that need to be cleaned.  Some doggies have a cork screw tail and others just a very tight tail that needs daily care.
Also, many bullies just get a number of  skin and coat infections or an overgrowth of yeast bacteria.  

Wipe the area above and around the tail each day with a baby wipe.  GET the non scented kind for human kids.  
Also, a good skin supplement will help a bunch.  Here is a link to a great bullie vitamin supplement:
This will get rid of any infection or irritation...

With good cleaning and supplements the problem will go away.
