My dog has black poop. Is it serious and does he need a vet?

Question

Why does my dog have black stools but not dry? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | 1 year and 7 months old

Daniel Fonza, DVM · Accepted Answer

Black stools can indicate bleeding in the intestinal tract. I would recommend having Mondy examined by a veterinarian and have his blood tested to see if there are any abnormalities that need to be addressed. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
