Perianal Fistula

This is not a very "nice" subject, but has anyone ever had a Corgi with a Perianal Fistula? My vet and I just discovered that mine has 2. My vet sees them all the time in Gernam Shepherds and several other breeds. When I had Gernam Shepheds and was showing them, I had several that had them over the course of time. My vet has been practicing for 30 years and is a "wonderful" diagnostician.

I took her to the vet last year because of her scooting her butt and whining. I had them check her anal gland. They said she had some kind of infection and gave me antibiotics and some lotion. She seemed to be doing well until about a month ago. I have some cream left and have been using that. I plan on taking her to the vet as soon as I can money wise. Been off on medical leave and my husband is laid off, so funds are tight. Thanks for bring this up, at least now I have something to ask the vet about.
