Owner: My dog keeps licking its 'girly bits'...
Me: hmm... everything looks fine, and the vulva looks normal, speyed dog... history not UTI, hmm... wait a minute... there was that one arthritic dog with impacted anal glands that licked its vulva... this one isn't arthritic, but...
Anal Glands: Hello, I'm gigantic! (paraphrased)
Me: Ah, so it looks like it's just a problem with the anal glands *explaining* Does she scoot at all?
Owner: Oh! Now that you mention it... she does; but I wormed her so I thought it was just from her hard poos.
Me: Yeah, well it's the anal glands, quite simple to treat... and reduce the weight... we don't want to get arthritis, do we?
