FAQs

Are Zesty Paws Scoot Away Anal Gland Support Chews suitable for my puppy?

Our Scoot Away Anal Gland Support Chews are suitable for dogs aged 3 months and over. Once your pup reaches this milestone, they can be introduced to their Zesty routine alongside their daily diet. As with any supplement, we recommend introducing gradually and following the feeding guidelines based on your dog’s weight. If your puppy has specific health needs or is under veterinary care, it’s always best to check with your vet before adding anything new.

What are Anal Gland Scoot Away Chews?

They’re functional chews designed to support healthy anal gland function in dogs by improving stool consistency, gut health, and odour control. 


How do they work?

The chews use a fibre matrix + botanicals to promote firm stools that naturally help express anal glands during bowel movements. They also contain ingredients that support gut health and reduce faecal odour. 

What behaviours or issues can they help with?

  • Scooting
  • Soft/inconsistent stools
  • Anal gland impaction risk
  • Faecal odour and flatulence   
  • Digestive discomfort

How long before I see results?

Results may be seen within a few weeks of consistent use, firmer stools, less scooting, reduced odour. 

Are they safe for all dogs?

Yes, they are vet-formulated with safe, natural ingredients. As with any supplement, consult your vet if your dog has existing health issues. 

Do I still need my vet to express my dog’s anal glands?

In many cases, these chews reduce or prevent the need for manual expression. However, if your dog already has severe or chronic issues, you should still consult your vet. 

Are there any side effects?

They’re generally well tolerated. Because they increase dietary fibre, some dogs may experience mild digestive changes (like more frequent stools) when first introduced. Always talk with your veterinarian. 

Do dogs like the taste?

Yes, the chews are designed to be palatable. In consumer studies, dogs readily accepted them. 

Can I use these with other digestive supplements?

Yes, they’re safe to use alongside other digestive or probiotic supplements but avoid doubling up too much fibre without consulting your vet. 

What ingredients do you use?

Everything that goes into a Zesty Paws Chew only comes from trusted suppliers – from our meat, fish and dairy to our fruit and veg, herbs and grains and, of course, our branded active ingredients.

Our philosophy is that if we wouldn't put it on our plate, we won’t put it in your dog’s bowl – it’s that simple.
