Hi, for the past 3 days I've noticed that our dog has been passing pus when doing a poo. Is this something serious?

Hi,
Finding pus around the anus or in your dog's stools for several days isn't normal and definitely warrants a trip to the vet. There could be several causes, most notably inflammation or infection of the anal glands, but it's difficult to be certain without a physical examination.
I'd suggest booking an appointment with your vet as soon as possible, especially if you also notice any pain, swelling, blood, diarrhoea, a fever, or if your dog seems generally under the weather. In the meantime, please avoid trying to express or treat the glands yourself.
Best wishes,
Victoire
