Why Your Dog Drags Their Butt On The Carpet
(Hint: It’s Not Worms, And You Need To Stop It)
The "Fishy Smell" secret that vets wish every dog owner knew

It happens at the worst time. You have guests over for dinner, and suddenly—your dog is dragging his behind across your expensive rug.
It’s funny, but it’s also gross. And that smell? That metallic, fishy odor? That’s not "dog breath." That’s impacted anal glands.
90% of owners assume it’s worms. They buy dewormers that do nothing.
The real problem is that your dog’s glands aren't emptying naturally when they poop.
The old solution? Taking them to the vet (or groomer) for "Manual Expression." It costs
50−50−100 every month, and frankly, it’s painful for the dog and can cause scar tissue.
Nature designed dogs to empty these glands themselves. But modern soft dog food doesn't provide enough "push."
That’s why I recommend VUN Anal Gland Chews.
It’s not a medicine. It’s a Fiber-Rich Supplement (Pumpkin + Beet Pulp) that firms up the stool.
Think of it as "internal mechanics." A firm stool pushes against the glands naturally, emptying them every single time they go potty.
No more scooting.
No more fishy smell on the couch.
No more awkward vet visits.
It’s the cheapest way to save your carpet.
