My dog's poop or vomit is bloody and looks like noodles, what is it?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed | 9 years and 9 months old | 6 lbs

So.. I'm not entirely sure if she threw this up, or if it came out the other end, but it's definitely beyond normal. I plan to make an appointment, but was wondering if anyone knew what this was? I picked around in it, and nothing moved. I initially thought it was worms. It's a weird mound, and there's blood in it. Consistency of worms, in a sense. Almost like noodles.

These could be roundworms which are obviously infesting the gastrointestinal system. A check up and appropriate medications are needed to confirm this clinical suspicion and resolve it effectively. Take a poo sample with you so your vet can identify the worms.
