When a dog poops, it is normal to see a reddish ring of tissue around the feces as they are pushed out. This is the mucosa of the colon. If it looks like there is a lot of tissue coming out when Milly poops, then she could be suffering from a rectal prolapse, which isn't normal, and I would have her seen by a vet for this.
