Expert Answer

Blood in the stool and refusal to eat are mainly considered to be caused by gastroenteritis, intestinal scratches, pancreatitis, parasite infection, poisoning, or a viral infectious disease. It is recommended to take your dog to a veterinary clinic promptly for examination to confirm the cause and apply appropriate treatment. If you normally don’t keep up with regular vaccinations, infectious disease should be the first thing to consider. This is a fairly serious situation, so getting your dog seen quickly is important.
