Symptoms of a dog who ate yucca?

I live in an apartment complex that has yucca plants outside, Our neighbors dogs who ate them say they had real bad pucking problems. I have a boxer who has just started having horrible diarea that contains blood. Could this also be from the yucca plant? He is still eating his food and drinking water and is not acting sick. Anyone who has any answers please help.





Also about a year ago he had a liver malfunction,but has been fine since we started him on Perscription Diet dog food.

Get him to the emergency vet if your regular vet is not open. Bloody diarrhea is not something you should ignore, even if he "seems fine."
Reply:Do not take advice from here when your pet has blood coming out it could just be worms that can be treated, but not with the stuff in the pet store there are more than one or two types of worms then again it could be something way more serious, I would be on the phone ASAP if they couldn't see me I'd be at emergency Vet
Reply:yikes, anytime there is blood in the dog's stool you should bring him into the vet. Are you positive that its blood and not something red that he has eaten? Keep a close eye on him and if the runny stools continue, or if you see anything resembling blood, I would get him into the vet ASAP. If anything, give them a call and see if they think you have anything to worry about. Never take vet advice on here... You never know if the person on the other side of the computer really knows what they are talking about or if they are just a bored 10 year old claiming that they do... Good luck!
