My dog has been rubbing his butt, dragging it on the floors ground everything for the last couple of days. What would be causing him to do this and how do i help him? he whines all the time.

Hi there
It sound like he has got impacted anal glands. This can easily be sorted out at the vets. Alternatively, he could have worms causing his bum to itch. Get a wormer here.
