does she have giardia? I just went through this with all 3 of mine...AT THE SAME TIME!! they also had a bacteria in there intestines...I hate to tell you this but they were all on meds for a month..girardia is a very tough parasite to get rid of...if this is what she has. Mine were on metronidizol (sp?) and fortiflora, which is a probiotic...after 2 weeks on these it wasn't getting any better, so, my vet added panacur to the mix..(this for 5 days) they were all back to normal poop after all the meds were done...but, like I said...it took 1 month.

Just wanted to add...if she still has blood in her poop i would be calling your vet back..JMO
