It's difficult to tell for sure without seeing him, but it seems like he has developed colitis, which generally means that his colon is irritated. This could definitely be due to the strap tie, but puppies also commonly get infections that cause similar signs. Anytime there is bleeding, I recommend they visit a vet. Bleeding indicates that there is a break in the lining of the colon, which can allow infections to get in the bloodstream and cause serious complications. I recommend taking him to a vet within the next 24 hours to ensure the best outcome. I hope that helps and Butta gets better soon.
