A number of things could cause this. Your dog may have eaten something that caused diarrhea. Contrary to what many people believe, it is not good for dogs to eat 'people' food. Also, your dog could have eaten something it found outside that caused the diarrhea. If your dog ate something that disagreed with it, or too much of something, it can also cause pancreatitis (inflamation of the pancreas). As for the mucous, that would probably be from inflammation of the intestinal tract. Take your dog off all food for twelve hours, but give plenty of water to prevent dehydration. Then, if the diarrhea subsides, gradually give small amounts of his regular food, then increase to his regualr amount if the diarrhea doesn't return. If this doesn't help, call your vet ASAP.

What do dog pounds do to dogs?

As a volunteer at kill shelter I can say that they are both good and bad. They are good as the dogs are out of danger that running loose can cause. But depending on the personnel at the pound they can be very bad places for dogs. If you have a staff that cares for dogs, that is the best situation. If not, like the one I volunteer at, it can be as dangerous to their longevity as running loose. Pounds in themselves are not good or bad, it is the people who run them that determines the good or bad condition's. Some dogs with medical problems they may get treatment for the first time at a well run pound, and they may get spay or neutered and make the dog much healthier as a result. But as I volunteer at a shelter that the management favors Cats over Dogs, the dogs get the dirty end of the stick when they come in.

Do dogs have black tarry stools before they die?

With any symptom in dogs, the first concern is duration - how long does it go on? That type of stool doesn't necessarilymean the dog is about to die, especially if it is otherwise healthy. All kinds of things can temporarily cause that kind of stool, and it's not a big cause for concern.If it goes on more than 24 hours, a vet should see the dog, because infections can cause that kind of stool to persist. Antibiotics should clear things right up.If the dog is old and death is imminent, abnormal stools like that are common.
