Runny poops again

I'm still feeding Jag only 2.5lbs a day.well were back to the runs again.this time it had bright red blood.so i'm going to see if i can get him into the vet today.i think the blood was his and i don't like that or the runs again either.
i don't know what to do anymore.changed from big runny ones on kibble and only go a couple of day with firm then back to runs again on raw.so i don't think it's his diet.

Hope he is ok . Are you feeding regular bones or ground up ones?

If I were you I'd actually do some home cooked for about a week or so and then ease into something like the Orijen. I'd say his system needs some time to rest. Maybe a stew like recipe with meat, sweet potato or regular potato and some veggies?

You can actually supplement kibble with raw meat (no bone) up to 20% of the total. That is what I am doing with Riley and have had great results.
