Thank you for submitting your question regarding Toto. I recommend that she sees her veterinarian today. Bright red blood typically comes from the colon. She could have inflammation that has resulted in blood and possibly mucus on the stool. Her stool will need to be tested to rule out an intestinal infection. If she has very hard or dry stool such as seen with constipation, this can also cause bleeding. Her veterinarian will examine her and determine how best to help this from happening again. I hope this information helps!
