My pug puppy is 57 days old. There is blood in her stool sometimes, although I have taken her to vet but they don't seem to get the thing rightly. Kindly suggest some solution.

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I would recommend initiating a bland diet as outlined below. Feed this for at least 3 days beyond the resolution of the bloody stool. If the bloody stool recurs after going back on the regular dog food, I would consider transitioning to a completely different dog food such as Science Diet, Royal Canin or Purina One. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
