My baby had pancreatitus.. bloody loose stools. At the onset it was projectiled bloody and no form or poo in there that I can see. Good thing was is that we were in the vets office when it happened and its tested neg for parasites and bacteria. He was not eating and had other problems going on, so he was admitted to the hospital for an overnite IV. Once done with that, I was told to give him Pepcid AC 1/4 of a 10mg pill. This will help keep the stomach calm and to also feed a very very low fat diet. Boiled Chicken and Rice, boiled hamburger and rice. It has to be easily digestible foods to keep the stomach and pancreas on a nice even keel. It took but a couple of days and he was back to normal.

Also 100% pumpkin will help firm the stool. But the blood concerns me. Did they check for pancreatitus?

As for the other problems my pup is experiencing... Unfortunately he has confirmed to have Cushings Disease. This is entirely heatbreaking experience.
