How long has she had runny stool (days, weeks, months)?
Has it been bloody this whole time, or did that just start?
Is the blood red or black?

We went through 8-9 months of this with Ellie (not rally runny, just very soft) until finally a diet change worked.
Her PVC is at 46 her Bun is 0.1 Preatty(spelling) 128 Ctl spec 31 Her lowest test was the Eosinphol 1 They dont seem concerned since she is feeling great and eating. I am going to Bat test her on friday just to make sure. I took her off the RC whitefish and potatoes because Dwerten said the white potatoes will irritate only if its sweet potato. So she is getting a mix of Canadea and Natures Recipe Vegetarian. I am taking her off the Canadea. She also get probiotic and my vet just told me to try Pepcid and break tabs in fourths. Yesterday around 12pm she had a bout and it had med to dark blood the size of a dime. Some gel looking stuff too. Light color. I gave her metro around 6 pm the night before. Seems like I need to give her Metro 2 times a day..
