Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. Based on your description, I would recommend having Dele examined by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. The blood in the eye could indicate a bleeding disorder. I am concerned about the loss in appetite and the black brown stool. Black stool can also indicate a bleeding disorder. I would recommend having Dele seen as soon as possible as a bleeding disorder can become fatal. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
