My 5-year-old dog, Jax, has a tender abdomen and yelps when touched. He's eating but won't sit up for treats, which is unusual for him. He's also not jumping onto the couch. He's taking Latanoprost, ketorolac, Ofloxacin for an eye condition, and Apoquel and Petlab Co. Itch Relief for itchy skin.

My dog, Cooper, a 1-year-old standard poodle, has been experiencing rectal bleeding for 24 hours. The blood is maroon in color, and he has been pooping more frequently. He doesn't seem sick, has an appetite, and is playing and wagging his tail. He might have eaten something unusual during walks. What could be causing this and what should I do?
