It means you aren’t eating enough fiber. But you should probably get a colonoscopy just to make sure it isn’t colon cancer, a tumor or whatever. But chances are good they will just tell you to eat alot more fiber.

Q: when i poop there is a lot of blood im curious if that bad it’s only when i poop and im kinda scared!!! please no dumb answers!!it was a little bit of blood but now its more help!!!

A: what color is the blood? bright red usually indicates hemorrhoids, not serious but can be painful, feels like a cut on your anus. you might need to see the dr. and have the clot removed. if it is dark or black stool it is an upper gi bleed and can be very serious. you would need to see a gi doc and have a few test run and perhaps a colonoscopy to assess for colon cancer.

my puppy has blood in her poop, is that bad?

Q: her stool is soft and looks like has some blood. how bad is that?

A: A lot of times it is not that bad. Could be stress, something she ate, etc. Working at a doggie daycare/kennel I have seen this a lot. While often because of stress, I’ve also seen it from things such as eating nails (or other things they shouldnt), and occasionally from actually being sick… but that is rare!However I would definitely keep an eye on her. If she is also acting wierd, and she does it again… I would get her to the vet.But If she seems fine/ is acting normal, I would give it another day or two before I would get too concerned. This can happen for a number of reasons, and often goes away on it’s own.Hope this helps… good luck! :)EDIT:For those saying take her to a vet ASAP (and somehow getting thumbs up, while I get them down)… sure, if you have the money and time, why not? But honestly, if you don’t, without her acting funny there is no need yet. It canhappen a lot, I’ve seen it, A LOT. 99% of the time it was nothing. And when it was something, it persisted for a few days. So, like I said, if it’s still happening, THEN I’d call the vet and see what they think. But hell if you have the money and time, then take her. But considering that they’re asking first… my guess would be that they don’t.
