Poor girl. There is likely an underyling medical condition causing her bloody stool, if it is indeed blood. You can try giving her an over the counter probiotic (Culturelle is the only one I recommend for OTC products) daily to see if this helps. Also adding 1-2 tsp of canned pumpkin (not the pie filling) in her food daily may help. However if after 3-4 days she does not improve its best to get her seen by your vet to rule out other underlying causes that she may need to get treated for such as intestinal parasites, pancreatitis or even a liver problem. Best wishes with your pet and I hope everything gets better soon.
