Why Puppies rectum comes out?
Hello, My Pug puppy is of 4 months. One day his rectum comes out with blood while doing stool, i take him to the Vet he told me there is nothing he can do after stitching and blocking rectum. He also told me not to give much food to the puppy. After few days stitches were broken and rectum was not healed and while stooling it again comes out. After that my puppy got atleast 20 stitches and Vet told me he can't do anything for this problem. Please suggest me what to do?

It sounds like your puppy has what is called a "Rectal Prolapse," which is a medical condition wherein the walls of the rectum protrude through the anus and hence become visible outside the body. Early treatment is crucial. If the tissue appears to still be alive and not too traumatized, your veterinarian will try to push it back into normal position. A suture is then placed around the anus to make sure the tissue does not come out again. The suture must be loose enough to allow stool to pass out. This suture is generally left in for 48 hours and then removed. If the rectal tissue is dried, severely traumatized or appears to be dead, surgery will need to be performed to amputate the damaged part of the intestine. The remaining tissue of the large intestine is sutured to the anus. Surgery may also be necessary if the prolapse returns after attempting to push it back inside and suturing.
