Question

Hi. My partners dogs has been poorly over the past 24hours, her poo has been coming out like water, she can't control her bowl movements, she had blood in her poop, and is refusing to eat her food and only drinking a little water. She is a rescue dog so we don't know her exact age but she is around 4/5 years old. She is a staffy. Pet's info: Dog | Staffordshire Bull Terrier | Female | 4 years and 9 months old | 20 lbs

I would recommend that you have Ruby examined by a vet. Watery diarrhea with blood means there is significant inflammation in the colon, and if she isn’t drinking a lot of water, she will become dehydrated very quickly. The vet will do an examination and may ecommend blood work. This will help them determine the most appropriate treatment and if she needs to be hospitalized.
