My dog ate rope and has bloody stool. Is his intestine injured?

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! He should be seen by a veterinarian if this continues so if it becomes a consistent finding or if it is also accompanied by diarrhea. Blood in the feces can be observed with conditions such as colitis, gastroenteritis, dietary indiscretion, intestinal parasites, among many other possibilities. If this continues, I recommend that you have Sami evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. They may choose to check for parasites and to start medications depending on the results. Good luck! Hoping for a speedy recovery!

Yes, the strings can damage Franny's intestines, and it can cause a linear foreign body. It could cause her to have runny and bloody stools if there is one, and I do recommend having x-rays done on Franny to see if she does have a linear foreign body. If she does have one, she will need surgery to remove it. I would make sure that she has no access whatsoever to the strings from the throw blanket in the future.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Vomiting and bloody stools can occur from many conditions such as foreign body ingestion and obstruction, pancreatitis, gastroenteritis, dietary indiscretion, among other possibilities. If he is having seizures that make this very serious as this is possibly unrelated and could be seen with conditions such as low blood sugar from vomiting, brain inflammation, epilepsy, among other possibilities. I recommend that you have Bruno evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. This will likely require bloodwork and abdominal imaging in terms of diagnostics and possibly an MRI. Treatment would be based on findings. At the very least your veterinarian could start him on medications to make him feel better. In the meantime, keep water available at all times to try to prevent dehydration. Good luck and have a good day!

I would take Coco into a vet immediately. I'd be very concerned that the bones could be causing his difficulty pooping and blood in this feces. He could have an obstruction and/or damage to his GI tract. Please take him into a vet now. Best of luck.

If Loki is having diarrhea with some blood in it, I would recommend a veterinary visit. Depending on the amount of court he swallowed he could develop a G.I. obstruction or perforation. But diarrhea with blood in it can be an indication of parasites, severe G.I. disease, pancreatitis, or viral infection. I would recommend a veterinary visit to assess why he has the diarrhea so it can be treated appropriately. I hope Loki is better soon thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Bear. I recommend that he sees a veterinarian. If your veterinarian does not have appointments, then he will need to go to an emergency hospital. I worry that the rib bones will cause a blockage in his stomach or intestines. This requires a emergency surgery if this happens. He also could develop a condition known as pancreatitis. This is an inflammation of the pancreas that can cause severe vomiting and diarrhea. The veterinarian will examine him and likely recommend testing such as x-rays of his belly and blood work. Based on these results, a treatment plan can be formulated to help him better. I hope this information helps!

Toilet paper should pass, but may cause some digestive upset or cause blockage of the bowels if enough was eaten. That said, blood from the stomach is usually dark red or black, and blood from the rectum/anus is a brighter red color. If Brie has eaten any new treats or foods, that can also affect stool color. If the red stool and vomit only occurred once after eating the toilet paper, I would continue to monitor Brie for any other signs of a blockage, These include continued vomiting and diarrhea, blood in either still, hunched or tender abdomen, bloated abdomen, not wanting to eat or drink, or attempting to vomit or defecate without success, as these are all signs of a medical emergency. You may also want to offer a bland diet for a few days to help with any minor digestive upset. Boiled chicken and rice is an easy option on the stomach. If you suspect a blockage, the symptoms continue, or Brie isn't improving, vet care ASAP is best.
