Whether a dog is healthy or not is often manifested through the body, such as whether it is in good spirits, whether it walks normally, whether it has appetite, and whether its bowel movements are in normal shape. Many diseases will also be manifested through these phenomena, so what is the matter with dogs having blood in their stools? What conditions cause them to have blood in their stools? Will it seriously affect the dog's body?

Some parents said that if the dog has blood in the stool, it is a bit serious, and there are three main possibilities for this situation:

The first type is dryness in winter and anal cracking;

The second is that there is a problem with the digestive system. There may be parasites or intestinal damage, so you need to go to the hospital.

The third three major infectious diseases of dogs, canine distemper, parvovirus, and corona virus, can all cause damage to the intestinal mucosa and lead to bloody or black stools. So no matter what, as long as blood in the stool occurs, the best way is to send it to a pet hospital for a detailed examination by a doctor to detect whether there is an infectious disease. If infectious diseases are ruled out, you can breathe a sigh of relief, because the three major infectious diseases are very destructive to dogs, especially puppies, and their mortality rate is also very high.

Another situation is to think about whether your pet has been fed bones recently. If you feed them chicken bones and other soft bones, it may scratch the intestines and bleed, causing symptoms of blood in the stool.

Therefore, if you want to know what is causing blood in your dog's stool, you still need to go to the hospital for examination. The specific situation should be treated on a case-by-case basis. Don't blindly self-medicate, which will be counterproductive.
