Poor guy. You can try a long term antibiotic such as Tylosin powder which treats for chronic colitis (bloody loose stool) in dogs. Also keeping him on a prescription diet of Royal Canin Gastrointestinal high fiber would be my suggestion. I would also recommend having your vet test Macho for a Vit B deficiency, as this may be the underlying cause which would require him to get Vit B supplements. If he still continues to have issues after trying to above recommendations then I would consider getting him an abdominal ultrasound or endoscopy done to determine what I going on with his intestinal tract. Best of luck with Macho and I hope he feels better soon.
