Scooting?

I know there's been lots of posts about scooting and Anal glands...but Polly scoots--that is, she tucks up her hind legs and pulls herself forward on her front legs...
Now I've checked her glands to the best of my ability, and I don't see anything that looks like what people have described.
Could it be something else? /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/confused.gif
I forgot to ask when I dropped her off at the vet this morning for her spaying...I hope I remember tomorrow when I pick her up?

Leave it to the vet, or at least have them do it once and show you how to do it correctly and then do it at home after that. It can be quite an uncomfortable experience for both of you if you don't know exactly what you're doing.

Worms could be another reason why they scoot. Consider having a fecal exam done on her.

Can you call them and leave a message on their answering machine or something so that even if you do forget maybe someone there won't?
