For many dogs, firework season can be a frightening and stressful experience. Whether it’s Bonfire Night on 5th November in the UK or indeed the weeks running up it, Independence Day on 4th July in the USA, or New Year’s Eve celebrations around the world, the sudden bangs, whistles and flashes can leave our beloved canine companions feeling unsettled or even terrified.

Skin problems are often the body’s way of telling us that something isn’t quite right. Whether it’s allergies, parasites, diet, environmental triggers or an underlying imbalance.

Our gorgeous boy Glen is 11 today. He’s a great dog, he’s calm, polite with other dogs, relaxed and quite confident in most situations (barring firework season 😖) and enjoys his walks. We live near a beach and he enjoys doing zoomies there and digging holes in the sand which he then sits in, and he loves a visit to a cafe or a friend’s home. However, he soon gets bored when walking to and between these exciting places, puts his brakes on and looks fed up! So we decided to

This is the ‘violet’ or supracaudal gland’, which is a patch of specialised sebaceous (oil-producing) skin.
