Bad diarrhoea first thing this morning, messed indoors a while ago which she never does, followed by more diarrhoea outside, followed by bright red blood! Have I panicked in booking her in at the vets this afternoon or have I done the right thing?
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg Not at all. Blood in poo, actually blood anywhere it's not supposed to be = vet. Let us know how you get on.
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg Definitely the right thing. I hope she's OK, please let us know.
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg Absolutely the vet.....let us know how she is and what the problem is ,sorry she's been so poorly,you will be terribly worried Best wishes Angela x
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg Thanks everyone. She seems absolutely fine other than the runs. Playing and misbehaving as usual. Seeing the blood alarmed me a bit though.
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg When is your appointment? Bright red blood is often just capillary blood, so hopefully nothing to worry about, but definitely important to have it checked.
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg Poor Meg, and you, hope she's better soon and it's nothing serious. If in doubt always a trip to the vet.

Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg Oh crikey I hope she is ok? They are such a worry. My Meg too has not been good these few days nearly got to the vet, but she's perked up now. Hope your Meg is back to her old self soon
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg Vet isn't too concerned and reckons it's a bit of colitis from something she's eaten or picked up from another dog. So a little bit relieved! Just gotta give her some pro-kolin and some digestive food for the next few days and hopefully it'll firm things up!!
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg You must be so relieved and I'm sure Meg will start feeling better very soon.
Re: First proper trip to the vets for meg Darcey had this last week, the pro-kolin worked and her poos are back to normal, she was alright in herself, she was not happy having reduced amounts of food though ;D We hope Meg is feeling better really soon Susannah & Darcey x
