Common causes of bloody vomiting or diarrhea in a puppy include dietary intolerance, dietary indiscretion, intestinal parasites, GI blockage, toxic exposure, gastroenteritis, bacterial or viral (like parvo or distemper) infection, among others. The x-rays you provided are not diagnostic for any specific disease, but there are a couple large pockets of gas that could indicated GI blockage or a decrease in movement of the intestines, called ileus, Other diagnostics that can be performed are CBC, chemistry, parvo test, intestinal parasite screen, or coagulation profile. If you have additional diagnostic results, you can choose a one-on-one consult and we can discuss them fully and help you decide what else can be discussed with your vet.
