So got him an emergency appointment at the vets she checked his weight,temperature and checked for tenderness all was good.
She said it is gastroenteritis and the blood is being caused by inflammation, she gave him 2 injections called Betamox LA and Zantac (Ranit), said it should clear up overnight... Didn't mention about a return visit.
He's acting his normal self and eating,drinking.
Has anyone else come across this problem? |
Blood in BM from Gastro? Yes. This last bout Chewie had. It's scary, I know. Chewie was very sick, though, and the other 2 times she had this, the symptoms were mild and no blood. I can assure you that not even an hour and a half after her antibiotics she had no more blood, and not even 10 hours later she was back to running and playing. Unless it's a ton of blood from what I understand after researching, speaking to people here, AND talking to the vet, it can be very normal. I hope your little guy continues to be on the mend.
