NaturVet - No Scoot for Dogs - 120 Soft Chews - Plus Pumpkin - Supports Healthy Anal Gland

My poor little dog was miserable with impacted anal glands that weren’t emptying properly. My dog sitter suggested she might need more fiber in her diet. My vet agreed and suggested No Scoot. Within a couple of weeks the problem seemed to be solved. It has been about 3 months since I started giving these (morning and evening for a small dog), and there have been no more occurrences. We are all happy now! Amazon seems to have the best price on No Scoot. Read more

My rescue dog has been having issues with very loose stools, diarrhea, and scooting for many months, and we believe the primary cause is not enough fiber in her diet, as the vet says she has no underlying health problems. She's an INCREDIBLY picky eater (and oh boy, is that putting it lightly!) with a very sensitive stomach. Standard dog food almost always causes her to get sick (we've essentially tried every brand under the sun including multiple types of RX food prescribed by the vet with little luck). Currently, two of the only things she tolerates well are steak and salmon. Our vet has her on a prescription vitamin that helps rounds things out nutritionally, and we wanted to add in fiber. I did a lot of research and decided to try the NoScoot powder. I have to be honest - my expectations were not high and I was concerned it would be difficult giving it to her. She doesn't like treats (unless they are of the stuffing-filled, cuddly, squeaky variety), so I opted for the powder and planned to sneakily sprinkle it on her food. The package arrived quickly, and I wanted to try it out right away. I prepared her meal, measured out the correct amount of powder for her weight, and put it into a separate small dish. However, before I could put it on her food, the freakin' cat leaped on the counter and with a quick swipe, knocked the dish to the ground. The dog, excited by the commotion, ran into the kitchen...and started licking the powder off the ground. I was surprised, to say the least. This is a dog who turns her nose up at peanut butter, biscuits, jerky, and everything else 99% of dogs would devour without a second thought--but she's eating up...powdered pumpkin and psyllium husk like it's a delicacy?! Well, okay! Do your thing, girl. It's now been almost a month of adding NoScoot to her breakfast and dinner, and she's only had diarrhea ONCE since. The improvement has been unreal. When she goes to the bathroom it's actually solid, and she isn't straining. They look like 'high-quality' poops, if that's a thing (I feel really weird even writing that, I'm just not sure how else to describe them without going into detail that very few would care to know). She *is* still scooting, but it has been significantly cut down - she has her yearly vet visit coming up so it's likely just time for her glands to be expressed, anyway. I highly recommend trying this out. The price point is lower compared to other brands with similar ingredients, and best of all, it works well (in my experience at least - I know all dogs are different). If you're debating between the powder supplement or the soft chews, I measured out the bottle and there are approximately 64 teaspoons in the bottle. The recommended dose of the powder is 1/2 a teaspoon per every 20 pounds, twice a day. My dog is 40 pounds, so I give her a teaspoon in the morning on her food, and a teaspoon at night (so a total of 2 teaspoons per day). The bottle should last about 32 days. The dose for the soft chews is 1 chew for every 20 pounds, 2x per day, so 4 chews a day for a 40lb dog. So, with a 40-pound pup (which is a standard medium-sized dog), the bottle of 60 chews would last for 15 days, the bottle of 120 soft chews would last for 30 days (or 30 days/60 days for a 20 pound dog).

I decided to try these chews for my two chihuahuas, hoping to address some ongoing anal gland issues. They love the taste, which makes it easy to get them to eat the chews. The chews do have a strong odor, but that’s not a concern for my dogs, who seem to think they smell delicious. I’ve been using these for about two months now, and while I appreciate the ease of giving them soft chews, I’m not entirely convinced they’ve had the desired effect. My dog, who struggles with anal gland issues, still scoots around, even though his glands were manually expressed by the vet tech only a few weeks ago. I plan to finish the entire bottle before trying a different product. I’ll monitor his progress and update my review if things improve. They may work for some dogs, but I’m not yet sure they’re the solution for mine. Read more

Love this product. My Pitbull had really bad gland issues and this cleared it right up and keeps it clear! Read more

She liked the taste only I didn’t see much change. Read more

This product works. My dog has not been scooting since I started giving this to her. I was always taking her to the vet to have her anal glands checked. So happy with this product. Read more

Smooth transaction - excellent product. Highly recommend. Read more

Well we had high hopes for this because she did go 4 days without “fish butt” but Alas the stink butt returned lol. She loves them as a treat and they are a good quality vitamin, soft, they smell good and probably good for gut health so we will finish the bottle and see what happens but our poor Shepard mix just has gland issues. The container is also well sealed which is good bc they’re potent smelling. Read more
