Syberian Husky Anal Sacs

19 11:05:16

Question
Our husky is 9 years old and weighs approx. 120 lbs. We used to have to take her to get her anal sacs excreted by the vet. I have changed her diet and give her rice and hamburg (with green beans/peas) or oatmeal and hamburg or gr. turkey.  I keep it at 75% carbs and 25% protein. Now every couple of days during the night her anal sacs must express because her blanket is wet in the morning.  She seems perkier than she ever has. Is this normal or am I feeding her too much fiber?

Thank you

Answer
are you sure it's anal glands or could it be kidney or bladder leakage? I would take her to the vet for a complete workup. At her age, alot of things could be happening. Knowledge is power.
Also are you adding some supplements? She should have vitamins A,C, E, B complex, fish and flax seed oil.
Good luck
