I just picked up two pups the other day and this morning I found blood in their stool and it was runny, I was wondering if giving them wormer and changing there food could have caused this, I know that blood is a sign for parvo but I've delt with that before and I don't think that's it! Any advice sis welcome. Thanks

Here are few things it could be besides Parvo.
Parasites
Usually, this is the most common cause of blood in the stool. The most common parasites that cause blood in the stool are hookworms, whipworms, and roundworms. Protozoans such as coccidia may also cause bloody stools. With appropriate identification of the offending parasites, a veterinarian will prescribe specific dewormers to help get rid of these annoying beings.
Dietary indiscretions
Over eating or dietary indiscretion may irritate a dog's intestines, causing vomiting, diarrhea and bloody stools. Dogs must be switched to new foods gradually. If a diet change is done too sudden vomiting and diarrhea may take place. Other causes may be eating spoiled foods or food intolerance and allergies.
HGE
Hemorrhagic gastro-enteritis involves copious blood in stools along with vomiting and diarrhea. Often the cause cannot be found, but your dog may need intravenous fluids and proper medications to let this condition subside.

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
