Anal sacs are small glands located just inside the rectum beside the anus at the 9:00 and 3:00 positions; they are positioned just under the skin.
They connect to the anus by means of small canals or ducts. Anal sacs produce and store a clear to dark, unpleasant-smelling fluid during defecation. These are the same type of organs that a skunk has to scare away its enemies. Being that a dog’s sacs are rarely emptied, the fluid builds up, solidifies, and becomes an environment where bacteria can thrive.
