My dog, Luna, returned home with a large pool of blood in the bathroom, indicating significant blood in her rectum area. She was in doggy care for 6 days before this incident. She is a three-year-old female mixed breed, spayed, and on monthly heartworm/parasite prevention. She lives with four other dogs. X-rays and blood tests showed concentrated blood and protein, normal other blood values, low-end normal blood pressure, no signs of foreign obstruction, but very inflamed intestines. What could be happening, and are there any additional questions I should be asking?

I am dog sitting my son’s 15-year-old mixed Beagle, Harley, who has kidney disease. She had diarrhea during the night, and one of the piles has what looks like blood. She hasn’t been drinking much water, and I saw her eating something in the backyard. She sleeps a lot but is perky when awake. Her gums are a normal reddish color and moist. What could be causing her diarrhea and blood in her stool, and what should I do?
