My puppy cried all night and is passing blood in stool
Bloody stool in a puppy has many causes: bacterial or viral infection like parvovirus or parasites, diet issues, obstruction from swallowed objects, or drug side effects. See a vet for tests and tailored drugs, diet, or surgery.
Why is my rabbit passing yellow watery stool?
Find the cause of yellow diarrhea and treat it. If from cold, warming helps quickly; if from indigestion or spoiled food, adjust diet, fast a day, give rabbit probiotics and glucose water. If from a serious disease, see a vet at once, as some kill within 2 to 3 days.
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?
Blood in stool can be from constipation fissures, parasites, gut injury, hemorrhagic enteritis or parvovirus. Hold food and water for hard objects; see a vet for soft stool and test for parasites; dark/black blood with vomiting suggests parvo.
How long should a dog with gastroenteritis and bloody stool fast?
For sudden gastroenteritis with bloody stool, fast 1 to 2 days to ease the gut. Mild cases get meds and probiotics; severe cases need the vet. Avoid long fasting to prevent collapse.
Reduced appetite, normal stools, gurgling with nasal sounds, occasional rapid breathing, no sneezing, normal mood
A cat's gurgling breath with runny nose usually means an upper respiratory infection. If from a cold, give cold medicine; untreated it can become pneumonia.
My rabbit eats, drinks, and defecates, but its belly is balloon-tight; is this gas? Stool varies in size with occasional pointed ends; a few days now, occasional squat and lying.
A tight belly may be gut stagnation causing gas; tap it, and a 'bong bong' sound means gas, from low fiber and slow movement or toxic feed. Best to see a vet for medication. If not, oral metoclopramide and simethicone aid movement and gas; papaya pills and pineapple juice lubricate; feed small frequent high-fiber meals.
My two-month-old Golden Retriever vomited white foam first thing in the morning, had dry heaves last night, no stool, no eating, just lies down whining, temperature normal.
Foaming vomit in dogs has many causes: food poisoning, poor diet, gut disease, parvovirus, distemper. An unvaccinated dog with foam vomit, no eating, and low spirits should be tested for parvo, distemper, or coronavirus. Non-viral causes may be gastritis, pancreatitis, or parasites; treat the cause. Dehydration is risky, so seek IV care.
My 2.5-month Pomeranian arrived yesterday, had normal stool, then diarrhea and vomiting; today it is weak, hind legs limp, eyes closed. What is wrong?
A new puppy with vomiting and diarrhea may have gastritis, stress, parasites or parvo/corona. Unvaccinated means test for infection first; vet care is urgent.
My four-month-old dog has distemper: no appetite, gurgling gut, bloody watery stool, not eating, retching, lethargic. What do I do?
These signs suggest an infectious disease, likely parvo more than distemper. If distemper is confirmed, hospital care is urgent with no guarantee of cure.
My 3 Month Golden Retriever Keeps Passing Soft, Jelly Like Stool, What Should I Do?
Soft stool means gut upset from overeating, irregular diet, bacteria, or parasites. Keep food sealed and feed twice daily, add probiotics, and see a vet for stool or blood tests if no improvement.
