Why is my dog chasing his tail, acting low, and his ears are down?

Question

My dog Smokey has always been a bit small , he won’t stop chasing his tail even when it hurts him and acts very low.... his head is always low and his ears are never up , Pet's info: Dog | Pit Bull Terrier | Male | unneutered | 50 lbs

If he is chasing his tail I would recommend having his anal glands checked. Sometimes if they are full it can make dogs feel uncomfortable. If a Pit Bull's ears are not cropped they are usually always hanging a little. If he isn't acting right a veterinarian visit is warranted.
