My dog has a light red streak in his formed stool. Is it serious? Vet?

Question

My Dog Arlo had light red streak in his stool today. It was a formed stool with no mucous. Only in the end it was soft and with one red streak. Am a little concerned as the reason for this can be many. I gave him his first deworming course yesterday. And he is on a diet consisting of dry pedigree for two days now. He is eating whenever he feels hungry and is drinking sufficient water. He seems playful too.Should I take him to the vet now or wait till his next stool?

Hi. I'd he is acting completely normal, wait for next bowel movement. Collect a sample to take to the veterinarian as well. If there is any vomiting that starts, get him in right away. Good luck. Great question
