How does a black-footed ferret kill a prairie dog?

What does it mean when your dog's stool looks like she is eating mulch?
If you have mulch around your property then she is probably eating mulch. However, when in doubt take in a stool sample (of the dog's LOL) to your vet. I use an old plastic medicine bottle washed out well, then scoop up da poop and place it in (just a small amount will do) and put a label on it with your dog's name (your last name) the time of the stool (if you can) and the date. Take it to your vet that day. It doesn't cost all that much and by doing this it saves the trauma of the dog seeing the vet and saves a lot of trouble for you. Good luck Marcy
