paddles Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 on the 18th of july, while at a race (i do sled dog racing) my dog had a sudden gush of feces and blood out his butt.. (very frightening) He at no stage acted lack luster or sick. A knowledgeable friend, advised that he did not need to be rushed to a vet, but to take him when we got home..( he thought it was a burst blood vessel in the bowel, something he'd seen before) I took him to the vet the following day, who diagnosed a combination of stress/worming/activity causing the problem (which was not reoccuring) and he did a course of antibiotics as a precaution, was put on rice and steamed chicken for a few days until his feces firmed up a little, then gradually put back on normal food (advance dried food) now last night, he once again has very very sloppy poo, with possible traces of blood. He does not act sick in any way. I will be taking him to a vet today, or at least speaking to the vet, but wondered what anybody else might have to say..... has anybody else seen things liek this??? suggestions ..... etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
