My 17-year-old toy poodle, Diego, has been experiencing random episodes of dark, mucous-filled diarrhea with occasional blood. He eats and drinks fine, but his sleeping has increased slightly, and he is walking a bit slower than usual. He had a routine check-up this summer with normal blood work for his age. What could be causing this and what should I do?
