My 10 1/2-year-old Shih Tzu, Sadie, has been experiencing soft stool with blood on and off. Her water intake has remained the same, and she hasn't eaten anything unusual. She has been eating chicken and rice for weeks but still has issues. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her?

My 15-year-old Beagle/Pointer mix named Ernie has a cancerous growth on his rear foot. The growth is entwined with his toes, making amputation the only feasible surgical option.
