Glandex for Dogs & Cats

9 out of 10 pet parents say Glandex® helps their dog's anal gland health, offering you peace of mind. Boot the Scoot!™ effectively with Vetnique™.

Glandex was created in 2012 by veterinarian Dr. James Bascharon to solve a problem he saw constantly in practice: dogs struggling with anal gland issues, and pet parents stuck in a cycle of repeat expression visits. What began as a single solution has grown into the defining anal gland brand!

Every Glandex formula works from the inside out. A patented fiber blend promotes the bulky, firm stools that help glands empty naturally with each bowel movement, while probiotics, digestive enzymes, and omega fatty acids support digestive health. It's a daily, long-term approach — and a gentler option than frequent manual expression, which can irritate the glands and cost hundreds of dollars over time.

From peanut butter and beef soft chews to powders for picky eaters, plus wipes and sprays for rear-end hygiene, there's a Glandex solution for every dog!

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Glandex work?

Glandex works from the inside out. Its fiber blend promotes bulky, firm stools that apply natural pressure to the anal glands during defecation, helping them empty on their own. Probiotics and digestive enzymes round out the formula to support digestive health.

How long until Glandex starts working?

Most dogs see results within 3–5 weeks of consistent daily use. Dogs with more persistent gland concerns may need 2–3 months. If you haven't seen improvement after several weeks, increasing to twice the recommended amount helps — some dogs simply need more fiber.

How do I give Glandex to my dog?

Soft Chews are given once daily as a treat, following the recommended amount for your dog's weight. Powder sprinkles directly onto dry food, or mixes into wet food, yogurt, or peanut butter for picky eaters. Start at half the recommended amount for the first 5–7 days.

Is Glandex safe for daily, long-term use?

Yes. Glandex is designed for ongoing daily use with no known significant or long-term side effects. Mild, temporary effects when starting — soft stools or gas — come from the added fiber and are usually avoided by starting at half the recommended amount.

Will my dog still need anal gland expression while on Glandex?

Many dogs need expression less frequently over time as Glandex supports natural emptying. Some dogs with ongoing concerns may still need intermittent expression. If your dog's glands seem uncomfortable or swollen, check with your veterinarian.
