why does my two year old yorkshire terrier drag her butt across the floor

Answers:

From: Alaska:)

a pet "scooting", or dragging the hind end on the carpet, grass, or your favorite rug is something most pet owners have witnessed at one time or another. more common in mid to smaller sized dogs, but occasionally seen in larger dogs or cats. why? well, most often is it because their anal sacs are bothering them. this does not rule out the possibility of other causes -- perianal tumor that is infected or bothersome, diarrhea, parasites, etc. but most often, it is an inflammation, infection, or impaction of the anal sacs.
