Re: Phelgm like thing on dogs waste

it sounds like a bit of colitis.
the stool will look softer,wet and have like a film of phlegm on it.
can be something she ate today did not quite sit well with her. many times it resolves on its own,just cut back a bit on the fat, other times you need to use some imodium(if gets diarreah), and metronidazole or tylan.
watch her next stool.

Re: Phelgm like thing on dogs waste

Mucous can be an indication of IBD. Is the dog in good health apart from this? Are you regularly worming the dog?

Re: Phelgm like thing on dogs waste

Mucous on stool is often a sign of whipworms

I had two stool checks done a week or twoapart to check for them

Re: Phelgm like thing on dogs waste

the dog's is healty and eating as usual before. I just recently dewormed the dog last may 9th and has noticed some blood on her stools on may 14 could these be a sign that the worms died?? and should I deworm her again just to be sure my vet told me to do it after 2 weeks again if needed.

Re: Phelgm like thing on dogs waste

Take a sample of her feces to the vet for analysis. There is obviously something going on with this dog and you need to find out what it is before it becomes a very serious health problem.
