    There are many possibilities, but two are likely 1) he has intestinal blockage, or 2) his anal sac's are infected. Either case requires medical attention. The anal sacs are at the lower sides of the anus, and are normally emptied during normal bowel movements, but will enlarge when infected. Most common in smaller dogs.

    • This is a serious problem if it's bloat, hopefully you've already visited your vet about this!
