    A rectum is INSIDE the body. How can you see it?

    Puppies don't get hemorrhoids.

    Take the puppy to a vet!!

    I agree with Wondergirl please get this puppy to the vet as soon as possible!

    There are quite a few things that can cause blood in the stool but the most worrying is probably Parvo Virus.

    I third the notion for a vet. A prolapsed rectum is serious and needs immediate medical attention.
