Nice topic I know but Molly scoots alot when shes on a dry food and her stools are never very solid. If we feed her ,mainly ND with some AG she scoots much less and  stools are good. Freya (miss I could eat anything) is absolutely fine on dry.  Is Molly just special or do others have this difference with their dogs? Food time involves thought and at 6.30 in the morning I lack the ability to do this. I know every dog is different I just would like to know if others havethe same probs.  Thanks

I read so many cav owners having this problem. im wondering if its a breed quirk,  ?

I have had 2 cavs and although thier stools were nice and firm they both had recurring infections in thier anal glands and they often got blocked completely.
Flushing was tried and finally they both eventually had to have them out.  Best thing I could have done as that was the end of all our problems in that department.

Raw bones fixed my dogs(not cav) anal gland problems.My vet wanted to take them out as they were continuously getting blocked,but the operation is extremely painful and the chances of fecal incontinence are high after getting the glands removed :( She now only gets them squeezed once a year instead of every month or two,and all i did was add mostly raw chicken necks and wings to her diet among others but the first 2 make up the majority.

I also have met plenty of cavs with AG problems,so in my opinion  rmb's are a neccesity for them :)

Whats RMBs???
