At first loose stool with a soybean-sized lump on the belly, then bloody loose stool, but the belly lump shrank and nearly vanished
Loose stool with blood usually means gut infection or damage from parasites or a foreign object scraping the gut, but parvovirus, bacterial enteritis, or constipation are also possible. See a vet to find the cause; for parasites, deworm and use gut-lining repair drugs and probiotics.
My dog was excited before eating, then lethargic after, lies still, eats only a little meat, passed soft stool with faint blood, then whines, sits restlessly, and keeps pawing at its face
Based on the signs, the dog likely has an esophageal or gastrointestinal blockage from eating too fast or hard food like bones, causing throat pain and restlessness (hence pawing the face). If choking, use the Heimlich maneuver; it may also be allergy or acute gastritis, or parasites/parvovirus. See a vet for a full check.

3-year-old male Golden Retriever, normal eating and energy, but blood in stool and a small lump at the anus only visible right after defecation

My 6-month, 46-lb Golden has had bloody stool for days; first soft now hard, red blood at start and end. What is the cause?
