French Bulldog: at first there was blood from the anus, then bloody stool in large amounts, and afterward it passed normal stool.
Heavy bloody stool suggests digestive tract bleeding from mucosal injury, likely colon scratches by a swallowed foreign object or hard food (bones, glass, etc.). Seek a vet promptly for hemostatics, anti-inflammatory, and infection control.

My dog had a fever of 39.7°C with yellow nasal discharge; after three days of vet shots the fever rose to 39.9°C, though it eats, drinks, and stools normally and the thick discharge is gone—what should I do?
Recurring fever often means a persistent infection; frequent antipyretics can hinder the immune response, so try alcohol-rub physical cooling on the ears, paws, and inner thighs. Still, get a clinical work-up—PCR for distemper and a blood test for parasites.

What happens if a male dog is not neutered?
If a male dog is not neutered, several problems may arise. First, an intact male will go into heat periodically, during which he becomes irritable and may display sexual behavior in all kinds of settings. Second, during mating season he may run away from home or mate indiscriminately with females, which not only increases the stray-dog population but also exposes him to infectious diseases. In addition, intact males are often more aggressive and may fight and get injured.
