- 64 of 100
Softer than ideal, with a little mucus. This is often linked to a diet change or a stressful day. Watch the next few, keep fresh water out, and call your vet if it lasts more than a day or two or you see blood, vomiting or low energy.
How it works
Snap
Take a photo of the poop, or pick one from your library. Tick anything else you've noticed, like vomiting, straining, not eating or a diet change.
Scout sniffs it out
Scout looks at consistency, color and anything that shouldn't be there: blood, mucus, worms, grass, undigested food, a greasy look or a foreign object.
Get a clear next step
A stool score on the 1 to 7 scale vets use (2 is ideal), a 0 to 100 Gut Score, what it might mean, what to do now, and the red flags that mean call the vet.
Log it, share it
Every check goes into your pet's log on your phone. Watch the trend over days and weeks, and share a clean PDF report with your vet.
Four clear next steps
Every check ends with one of these, so you are never left with a wall of text and a worried feeling.
- All clearLooks like a normal poop for your pet.
- Keep an eyeNot quite right. Watch the next few and check again.
- Call your vet todayWorth a call during opening hours. Your vet can say if they want to see your pet.
- Call a vet nowA red flag, like black tarry stool or a lot of fresh blood. Call your vet or an emergency clinic right away.
Red flags always win. If something you tick sounds urgent, PoopScout says call a vet now, whatever the photo looks like.
